MyQRMed NDIS Information Hub
MyQRMed offers Medical Alert solutions that help keep important health and support information easy to access across daily life, appointments and emergencies. For people living with a disability, this can support clearer communication and fast access to key details when needed.
Why Accessible Health Information Matters
For many people living with disability, health and support information is shared across multiple settings, from home and community supports to therapy, education, transport and medical appointments. When important details are hard to communicate or not immediately available, care can become less consistent and more stressful.
Evidence shows why this matters:
-
1 in 5 people with disability who saw 3 or more health professionals for the same condition reported problems caused by poor communication between providers
-
The Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care warns that communication failures and poor documentation can lead to errors, misdiagnosis, inappropriate treatment and poor care outcomes.
-
A landmark study found that hospital patients with communication difficulties had higher rates of preventable adverse events (46% vs 20%), highlighting how communication barriers can worsen outcomes.
​​MyQRMed is designed to help reduce that information gap by making selected details easier to access when needed. It can support clearer handovers, more consistent communication and better continuity across the people involved in someone’s care.

Your Medical Alert
Profile
Designed for the Disability Community
MyQRMed medical alert products are designed to support communication, continuity and safer everyday care for people living with disability. A quick scan can display chosen information such as medical conditions, medications, allergies, communication preferences, support notes, care instructions and key contacts.
This can be especially helpful when:
-
Speech is limited or fluctuates
-
Information is hard to recall in stressful situations
-
Multiple workers or providers are involved
-
Routines, strategies or support needs need to be shared consistently
-
Fast access to accurate information may assist in an emergency
Unlike traditional engraved IDs, profiles can be updated as needs change, without replacing the product. That means information can stay current across home, community, therapy, school, work and healthcare settings.
Early Childhood (0–6)
For children supported under the early childhood approach, the QR Medical alert helps educators and therapists access the right notes (communication strategies, sensory needs, emergency contacts) in seconds.
Profiles can include communication preferences, AAC use, sensory supports, calming strategies, routines, and key contacts so support is consistent across childcare, kinder, therapy sessions and home. Educators and therapists can scan at drop-off, during sessions or on excursions—no app required—and parents/carers control what’s shown, updating details as goals or strategies change.
This reduces handover friction and helps every adult around the child provide the same, predictable support. ​​
