You probably have a chart at your doctor's office, and perhaps at several; if you have been in hospital, there is one there too. These charts are your medical records, on paper or electronic. To keep track of all of it, it is a good idea to keep your own personal health record.
What to include
You could start with:
- your name, date of birth, blood type and emergency contacts;
- the date of your last physical;
- the dates and results of tests and screenings;
- major illnesses and surgeries, with dates;
- a list of your medicines and supplements, their doses and how long you have taken them;
- any allergies;
- any chronic diseases;
- any history of illness in your family.

First aid is the care you give an injury or sudden illness before medical help arrives. When to call 911, how CPR, an AED and abdominal thrusts can save a life, how to stop bleeding, and what a basic kit needs.
