1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- registering, via a vehicle computing system (VCS) included in a vehicle, at least one medical condition associated with a vehicle occupant;
monitoring environmental conditions, via the VCS, for the onset of a trigger likely to cause complications with regards to the medical condition;
warning the vehicle occupant, via the VCS, about the onset of the trigger; and
adjusting a vehicle component or system, via the VCS, in response to the onset of the trigger.

13. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
providing an input to a vehicle computing system (VCS), the input allowing a vehicle occupant to input a medical condition or symptom; receiving an input to the VCS corresponding to a medical condition or symptom; comparing, via the VCS, the input condition or symptom to a list of known conditions and symptoms; providing via the VCS, medical information regarding the condition or symptom; receiving via the VCS, input indicating whether the condition or symptom is a current condition or symptom; and if the condition or symptom is a current condition or symptom via the VCS, providing recommended medical assistance information to address the condition or symptom; determining if the condition or symptom is a critical condition or symptom, based at least in part on information stored in conjunction with the list of known conditions and symptoms; and if the condition is a critical condition or symptom, providing emergency medical contact information, including at least one of an option to immediately dial an emergency operator through the VCS or a local medical care provider within close proximity to current GPS coordinates of a vehicle in which the VCS is included. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
