Care Medical ID Bracelet
Tue, 05/04/2010 - 10:30Hello to all!
I have found the best (at least for me) ID Medical Bracelet. It's called Care. The bracelet is made of some kind of rubber, comes in different sizes and colors for adults and children. It can be used for any kind of medical condition that others may need to know. It is an electronic medical bracelet with software programed in the bracelet. You can list Drs. Hosp. Meds. Contacts, history. No one can change the info on the bracelet it only shows what you put in the software. Put it on your wrist and when its needed the EMT or others can plug it into a USB plug and know whats going on. You can update meds. and info as you need to, they are private, druable, and waterproof. No internet storage and no additional fees. I paid 20.00 at wallgreens boy what a bargin for me, I'm always in the garden getting wet and I fish in saltwater too!
My last Medical ID bracelet was cheap and I only had Epilepsy engraved on the front with no info on it, then it was close to my hairspray and the chemical reaction took the finish off of the bracelet. I showed my new bracelet to my Neuro. she said that any one that has a medical problems should have this bracelet. I had an extra because it was too small and gave it to my neuro. she said that she was going to give it to her nephew because he was allergic to nuts and was a child.
Just thought everyone should know about this bracelet it could be a lifesaver!
