Tap To Save Your Life

If you flip your car, set yourself on fire or put your hand in a blender . . . it’s a good bet you’ll pass out.

When emergency responders arrive, they’ll search your body for information that can identify you and provide information on any existing medical conditions.

Bleeding and unconscious . . .  how can you help?

The answer . . . take a few minutes now and fill out Medical ID in the Health App on your iPhone.

• Open the Health App.
• Tap the Summary tab.
• Tap your profile picture in the top right-hand corner.
• Tap ‘Medical ID’.
• Tap ‘Edit’.

Input your identity, medical notes, allergies & reactions, medications and a list of your emergency contacts.

Medical ID is accessible even if your phone is locked.

It has saved lives . . . but it can’t help you if you don’t fill it in.

If you don’t find the Health App on your iPhone, download it from the App store.

Have a safe weekend.
