MedicAlert Information & Medical Identification Jewelry |
November 28, 2009
We can not stress enough how important it is for anyone affected by a bleeding disorder to be prepared for an emergency. One way to do that is to make sure that you or your child are enrolled in the MedicAlert system. MedicAlert Foundation provides personalized medical identification bracelets and necklaces with a 24-hour emergency response and medical information service. You can order directly through MedicAlert via their website at www.medicalert.org or call them at (888) 633-4298. If you need assistance with the cost, HNC does provide these services through our Financial Assistance Program. For more information on this program, contact HNC at (800) 990-5557 or by email at info@hemophilia-nc.org. We also realize that sometimes style is important and have been provided a website that offers a variety of designs for medical identification jewelry - www.laurenshope.com. There are also many other sites available that have items that may be of interest and can be found with a search on the Internet for medical identification jewelry. Purchases through these outlets are not covered under the HNC Financial Assistance Program. Think of the great gift you can give yourself or your child during this holiday period - peace of mind in knowing you are prepared! — Susan Cowell |
