Why is it so important, you might ask? It?s the first comprehensive device that stores and encrypts vital child identification and medical data for immediate needs in medical emergencies. It stores and organizes your child?s vital medical information so you and emergency responders can have key info instantly. Unlike a typical USB device, My Child ID is secured using SHA 1 encryption, designed by the National Security Agency (NSA).
Information stored includes:
- Vital stats (Height, weight, eye and hair color, etc.)
- Previous medical conditions
- Family history / Medical history
- Blood types (Cross matches for entire family)
- Allergies / medications
- Pharmacy information
- Important contacts (Family, friends, doctors, baby-sitters, teachers and more)
- Ability to send Private Alerts at the click of a mouse
Don?t be caught unprepared at the time you should be most prepared!
