Potential uses
 
- General emergency preparedness
- Preparedness for specific situations, such as flooding or chemical release
- First aid (general or specific eg heart attack)

       ... all with your local information and contact details

Advantages

Conventional booklets, leaflets and posters may be put in a drawer and forgotten or lost, or even thrown out. This booklet, on the other hand, can be put on the fridge door where:
 
- it does not take up any room and, most importantly,
- it is at people's fingertips when they need it

 
Case study
 
The City of Scottsdale, Arizona, USA, decided they wanted a publication which included information on emergencies to which residents would most likely be exposed – heavy storms, etc. They also included basic CPR and AED instruction with encouragement to sign up for classes.
 
This was their thinking when they decided on a fridge magnet:
 
"Most people received the original packet, which was a tabbed booklet, and tossed it into a drawer where it could be lost and would not readily be available if there was an emergency – or they simply threw it away.  
 
"The magnet is a cost-effective and unique way to present the needed information that would allow most individuals to put it in a place they would access it quickly. The paper in the magnet is both waterproof and tear proof, so it will remain intact under most circumstances.
 
"Response has been overwhelmingly positive with many residents/businesses requesting more copies to share with employees and family members."
