I have a medicaps pendant which I wear all the time I am home or out although this is only good for inside and out in the garden I only have to press it and it alerts 5 of the neighbors and my sons. I also have a Medic Alert bracelet which I wear all the time this has all medical conditions and allergies if any and notification if on blood thinners I don't go anywhere without I also have a card I carry in my purse with this information on it and a card to let them know I have a dog at home I feel it is a very good idea to have this information the bracelet also has on it my hospital UR number so they are able to get medical records straight away Maybe this is something we all need to give thought to it could possibly save your life

I buy the blank on line and have it engraved, then I bead a fancy bracelet using lobster hooks to attach it to the medical alert blank. Mine says Parkinson's /meds list in wallet.
