Maybe he has no allergies, isn't on any medication, or he wears a medical alert bracelet thing.
If you don't have someone in your life that's reliable, it's more dangerous to list someone unreliable.
My mom would be a reasonable emergency contact for me. My pop would be an awful one for me because he can't remember his own allergies and meds schedule, let alone mine.

No. Your pop would know how to get a hold of your mom, and that is all that's needed. They are simply a point of contact, to get things started. Someone who knows something about you, or can find out. He would know you are on some meds (even if he doesn't know which ones), and could probably get into your house and search your cabinets to find out. He would know where you work, and can call your boss to say you are not coming in. The nurse at the hospital can't do that. It's better if it's someone reliable, obviously. But if that's not available anyone who knows you is better than no one.
- Nexxxeh 10y agoNo, he'd give potentially inaccurate information, which is worse. Sometimes it's better to not have a contact listed. I'd be tempted to hook up a Twilio number and henna the number on me, in addition to a medical alert bracelet.
