The Evolution of the Medical ID

While I was designing LIFETAG Medical ID, I talked with medics to better understand the recognition of medical identification. Medics have a very short amount of time in which to diagnose your problem. Every second counts. They first check your body for medical ID; if they don’t find any, they begin running through a lengthy series of tests to determine what is wrong. If they knew from the beginning that the problem might be related to a medical condition, such as an allergic reaction to a bee sting, a diabetic in need of insulin, or the use of a blood thinner, they would immediately be able to administer the appropriate medical treatment and save your precious life. 

These stick-on medical IDs are great in that they keep you identified and are able to be placed on pretty much anything!
