What is a Life Tube ??
A Life Tube is a plastic cylinder containing an information sheet, which when completed, details your relevant medical and personal information. The tube is kept in the household refrigerator. The RED STICKER provided should be placed on the outside of the refrigerator.
If, in the event of an emergency POLICE, AMBULANCE or FIRE SERVICES are called, they are alerted by the RED STICKER to the fact that vital information is available inside the refrigerator.
Information is also available to a neighbour or other person who may find someone in difficulty.
Originally LIFE TUBES were promoted particularly for the elderly and people living alone, but undoubtedly they have application for people of all ages.
