Autism, ADHD and support preferences
Autism and ADHD medical alert IDs
For autistic people, people with ADHD and people who may become overwhelmed, communication can be harder during stress, sensory overload, illness or an emergency. A MyQRMed QR medical ID can show selected support notes, communication preferences and emergency contacts when someone scans the code — no app needed.
- No app needed to scan
- No subscriptions
What your autism or ADHD QR profile can show
- Communication preferences and support needs
- Sensory triggers, calming strategies or de-escalation notes
- What helps when overwhelmed, distressed or non-speaking
- Emergency contact, parent, carer or support worker details
- Medication, allergy or health information you choose to share
- Important routines, safety notes or support preferences
- School, work or community support notes, if relevant
Why it matters
When communication is difficult or overloaded
Some people communicate differently, become non-speaking under stress, need extra processing time, avoid eye contact, experience sensory overload or need a trusted person contacted before decisions are made. Without context, those needs can be misunderstood.
This page is for people who want a practical way to carry support preferences, sensory notes and emergency contact information across school, work, transport, appointments, community access and unfamiliar settings.
How MyQRMed helps
Clear information when communication is difficult
A MyQRMed QR medical ID can provide written context when verbal communication is hard, delayed or not possible. It can show the person’s preferred communication style, support needs, sensory notes and who should be contacted.
The profile can be updated by the person or an authorised account holder, making it useful when support workers, school contacts, medication details or communication strategies change.
Customer feedback
Got the necklace then the bracelet for my son who has epilepsy and autism. He is non-verbal when overwhelmed, and now if something happens, someone can scan it and see his info.
