Say goodbye to those metal things you wore as a kid that said things like “Diabetic” or “Allergies.” The new Care Medical History Bracelet lets you store all your personal health history data so that emergency medical staff can easily see your medical records on their computers (via a USB plug-in).
A wearable memory device that comes in a myriad of rainbow colors and several different sizes, the bracelet comes preloaded with Care e-Manager Software so you can store prescription records, doctors’ visits and notes, health tests, diagnostics, immunization dates and history, drug allergies, insurance references, doctors’ and specialists’ contacts, and pretty much anything else that helps avoid medical errors and could possibly save your life. It is currently used by a number of institutions too, including the Muhammad Ali Parkinson Center and The Special Olympics.
It’s waterproof and sold at CVS, Walgreens, Target, and more. ($29.99, MedicalHistoryBracelet.com)
