Medical Alert Bracelets for Epilepsy
(QR Medical ID)
One scan shows seizure information, rescue medication and contacts—so responders know what’s typical for you and who to call.
Why a medical alert matters for epilepsy​
During or after a seizure, communication is often limited. Bystanders and responders need quick certainty: Do you have epilepsy? What does a typical seizure look like? Do you carry rescue medication—and where is it? A medical alert bracelet or necklace is an immediate visual cue. With QR Medical ID, a quick scan reveals context that engraving can’t fit—seizure type and frequency, rescue meds and dose, triggers to avoid, and who to contact. That helps first responders support you safely and contact family faster.
What to include in your QR Medical ID profile
Keep it concise and practical for emergencies:
-
Diagnosis & seizure type: e.g., focal impaired-awareness, generalised tonic-clonic, absence seizures.
-
Frequency/pattern: Typical duration, clustering, and recovery expectations (post-ictal confusion/sleep).
-
Rescue medication: Name, dose and route (e.g., buccal midazolam 10 mg, nasal midazolam 5 mg; diazepam rectal gel). Note where it’s kept.
-
Triggers & precautions: Sleep deprivation, missed meds, flashing lights, illness, alcohol—anything responders or family should consider.
-
Current medications: Anti-seizure drugs with doses (lamotrigine, levetiracetam, valproate, etc.).
-
Allergies/adverse reactions: To medicines or adhesives.
-
Safety notes: Head protection needs, airway/positioning reminders, when to call an ambulance if this isn’t already one.
-
Contacts & clinicians: Primary carer/family, neurologist, GP.
Use clear, readable language—no abbreviations that only your specialist would know. You can add supportive notes (e.g., “after a seizure I’m usually confused for ~30 minutes—please call my partner”).
Which product is best for epilepsy?
-
Medical alert bracelet: Most visible during day-to-day activities and sport; silicone is comfortable and secure; stainless steel offers a dress option.
-
Medical alert necklace: Sits over clothing for visibility; good if you dislike wrist jewellery.
-
QR Medical ID Kit: Wallet card and fridge magnet for carers, schools and home—great backup when jewellery isn’t worn.
Helpful pairing: If seizures could lead to falls or you live alone, consider the SOS Alert Watch (Personal Alert Safety System). It can send alerts to nominated contacts when you press SOS or if a fall is detected, and share your GPS location. (It doesn’t detect seizures, but it’s useful for safety and contact.)
