WOW...this is going to be a great thread. Like you, I have the emergency card - we started that when I suddenly realized that neither of us carried anything on us that would tell someone how to contact the other in case of emergency (we were both working while full-timing and drive daily, sometimes a hundred miles or more).

I have a template on my computer that I can easily update with my name/address and phone and three contacts with the same (and relationship). I also list health insurance company/phone/policy #, doctor's name/phone, any major medical conditions and all the medications I take. I print two sizes (one for wallet and one for motorcycle tankbag) and it takes up two sides (I cut them out, put them back to back) and I laminate them.

I also have all three of my kids listed as ICE (In Case of Emergency) contacts in my cell phone. (I use whatever key will sort that to the top of the list, one phone it was _ICE, another it was a space first. I list their name next so I have ICE Darren, ICE Jenn, ICE Sheri). While this is not actually a formal procedure, local emergency personnel have been recommending this for several years now.

But I hadn't thought about being alone in the RV and what if something happened. Heck, my neighbors here at home wouldn't pay attention to not seeing me since they rarely do now.

My first thought would be to talk to the campground owner and set up some type of check-in there. Not that I'd be nuts about that but it would work. The other thought would be a daily phone call to a good friend or loved one, with the knowledge that if you miss a call by more than xxx (whatever you set up) hours, they would contact the campground (this obviously requires that you keep them updated with where you are staying).

I'll be interested to see how others have handled this.....and thanks for bringing it up!!!
