Medical ID feature makes key medical information available to strangers when your phone is locked.
If you are incapacitated during a medical emergency, a stranger can go to your power-oBn screen (long press right button and volume up on modern iPhones). That’s where your Medical ID info will be.
• Go to Health App > Medical ID > Edit
• Add an emergency medical contact.
• Medications and medical conditions will be public to anyone who picks up your mobile!!! Should this concern you, place a note instead: “Call emergency contact for medications and medical conditions.”
• I have not filled in my blood type. I have never know a Paramedic to carry blood smiles they will instead pump you with fluids instead.
Medical ID have a couple of practical benefits for you.
• You lose your mobile and someone finds it they can call your emergency contact.
• You have a life-threatening situation, doctors can call your emergency contact.
