I am healthy, why should I wear a Mediband® Medical Wristband? Accidents and medical emergencies do happen to healthy people without warning. Last year in the US 103 million people were taken to emergency rooms. Isn't it better to be prepared - just in case?
How do I know emergency personnel will find my bracelet?
Emergency personnel will search the personal belongings of anyone involved in an accident in order to identify that individual. Moreover, Mediband® wristbands are easily noticed and colour coded to the wearer′s medical condition where appropriate.
Mediband® wristbands are also marked with the caduceus medical symbol or mediband alert symbol which is universally known to caregivers and medical personnel.
Best of all, Mediband® wristbands are not hidden in a wallet or purse ... they are in plain view, on your wrist.
Wouldn't emergency room personnel be able to get my medical records from my local hospital? Yes, they probably can. But, it could take hours and if the request is made after office hours, your medical records would possibly not be retrieved until the next day. In an emergency situation, seconds count. That valuable time could make the difference between life and death.
