Technology That Saves Life

These days we are so dependent on our smart phones that we simply can't imagine our every day life without them. After multiple social experiments conducted it turns out that we, human beings, can barely spend approximately three hours off the phone before the urge of getting our hands on it is haunting us again.

It is funny that say twenty years ago we used to interact just as perfectly without having such a developed technology in our purses and pockets. Today, however, if you forget your phone at home it almost feels like you have lived a day in vain: your coworkers, family members and friends are out of reach and you can't help but feel awful about being cut out from 21st century.

As much as we can blame modern smart phones for their time-eating abilities, there is something great that has happened with the latest iPhone 6 launch. All the users of the latest iPhone model now have a great new in-built option of having their Medical ID set up. Medical ID is basically a page in your phone that contains all the valuable emergency information that can be accessed even if your phone is locked.

Aside from being able to add your photo, date of birth and other body measurements - you can easily list down all your emergency contacts (be it family or friends), list of allergies and mention your blood type. Your Medical ID can be accessed from the emergency dialer on your phone which luckily comes in all the commonly used languages so even if a foreigner wants to help you in case of a medical emergency - he can easily find it on your phone in no time.

You can additionally mention whether you are taking any medicine or are under a certain medical treatment. Such information is very valuable to medical personnel in case if the patient is being unconsious or can't talk. In case if you as iPhone 6 user are willing to update, change or delete your Medical ID information - you have such option as well.

We also believe that app like this is extremely helpful for your children; in case your child might not know certain medical information about himself/herself - medical personnel can always enter it without needing to contact you first. Which sometimes is a matter of saving a life.

To wrap up this post, we would like to say that we are big fans of Medical ID set up for the newest iPhone and wish other companies follow the trend.
