MEDFORD, Ore. - In an emergency, first responders and ER physicians need to make quick decisions that can often result in life or death for a patient.
 
In many instances the medical history, allergies and next of kin information is not readily available.
 
However, there is a quick, secure and free way to make sure you get the best care in an emergency. The Next of Kin Registry website allows you to input your emergency contact information and any medical concerns, all free of charge. Then, public trust agencies like police officers and medical personnel can access the data securely.
