Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and Town Clerk Richard LaMarca recently announced that the Town will provide residents aged 60 and over with a Free Senior ID Card. The program will take place from October 26th through October 30th, 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., at Town Hall South located at 977 Hicksville Road in Massapequa.
Supervisor Saladino stated, “I’m proud to once again offer this potentially lifesaving program to our residents. These Senior ID cards can provide first responders with vital information if one becomes unconscious or incapacitated, making it easier to receive expedited and informed care in the case of a medical emergency.”
This ID card serves as an important tool in the event of an emergency as it allows first responders to quickly identify health and contact information. Photos and cards will be processed on-site, and residents will take their ID card home from the event. Please note this is not a legal or Federal ID.
The Town of Oyster Bay Senior ID Card will include pertinent information such as allergies and medical conditions, as well as a photo and an emergency contact. Residents are asked to bring a photo ID with proof of residency. To RSVP or for more information, please call (516) 624-6380.
