Claims

1. My medical stick will provide important information about your medications, allergies, medical assisted devices, prostheses, or personal contacts in case of an emergency:

Parents or guardians that are watching your children will find the MED STICK invaluable. Pre-authorization can be included on the Stick giving the medical facility permission to save that child'"'"'s life without wasting precious time calling for authorization. People with medication allergies will find this very valuable, especially in an emergency situation. With medical directives already on the Stick, there is little room for error and it could save their life or, in case of death, give legal directives to hospital or next of kin. The ER or EMT will be able to see your medical records in a FLASH. A computer or laptop with USB input can read the information, because everything is contained in the Stick. No need for a special reader or program on the computer. Just put the Stick in the USB ports and up comes the welcome screen. If this is an emergency, then just hit the (on-screen) “
