The National Autism Association has developed an emergency profile sheet that provides information about a child with autism, including medical needs, a physical description, allergies, likes/dislikes, what to look for with escalation, and ways to communicate. They recommend that parents share this with family, friends, school personnel, anyone who has contact with their child.

As always, please let me if I can be of any assistance,
