Medical Alert Bracelets for Autism & ADHD
(QR Medical ID)

One scan shows communication notes, sensory needs and contacts—so helpers support calmly and reach family fast.

Why a medical alert can help​

Unexpected situations—crowded places, loud sirens, unfamiliar helpers—can be overwhelming. A medical alert bracelet or necklace signals that important communication notes are available; a QR scan shows how to help: preferred communication, sensory sensitivities, strategies that calm, and who to call. This is useful for children, teens and adults who want support that respects their needs.

What to include in the QR profile

Keep it supportive, clear and focused on safety:
 

  • How I prefer to communicate: e.g., short sentences, yes/no options, show rather than tell.

  • Sensory notes: loud noises, bright lights, touch sensitivity, clothing tags—what to avoid/limit.

  • What helps: noise-reducing headphones, quiet space, a familiar person, time to decompress.

  • Medical info (if any): medications, allergies, relevant diagnoses.

  • Contacts: parent/carer/partner, support worker, school/centre.

  • Other notes: wandering risk, preferred name, helpful phrases.
     

Best product choices

  • Medical alert bracelet: Durable silicone for school and activities; stainless for dress wear.

  • Medical alert necklace: Good if bracelets are uncomfortable—worn over clothing for visibility.

  • QR Medical ID Kit: Wallet card for school bag, sticker on device case, fridge magnet at home.
     

Optional pairing: The SOS Alert Watch (Personal Alert Safety System) can alert nominated contacts with location if SOS is pressed or a fall is detected—some carers value this for safety.
