"The Emer-Medic-Pack": Gives First Responders Vital Medical Information on Victim
New York, NY, February 13, 2017 (Newswire.com) - Automotive accidents cannot always be avoided and it is hoped that first responders are quick to the rescue. An emergency can be traumatic for a victim however, when this new device is in use, the potential for further damage is considerably eliminated. The Emer-Medic-Pack places an individual's vital medical information – from their blood-type to their medications, drug-allergies and sensitive conditions – in a glow-in-the-dark, waterproof pouch attached prominently to their seat-belt. It is designed to save time by providing first-responders with an immediate, comprehensive digest of medical conditions, thereby eliminating mistakes when treating an individual for injuries, the Emer-Medic-Pack helps save lives that might otherwise be lost without this vital information.
The Emer-Medic-Pack sheath or pouch is rectangular and fabricated in durable material with the words “Medic Alert” or “Emer-Medic-Pack” embossed in glow-in-the-dark letters. The pouch/sheath wraps around the shoulder-harness strap via Velcro® strips and when closed is waterproof. Within the pouch is a form to be filled in by the user containing vital information including name, address, date of birth, phone numbers and emergency contact information. The form also includes the following: religion, language; blood type and a range of vital signs considered normal. The name of the user’s primary care physician with contact information will also be included. In addition, the form includes a checklist noting if the individual has a pacemaker, contact lenses, dentures, hearing problem, or only one kidney and a space for filling in any other relevant health problems – heart disease, asthma, diabetes, etc. – of which treating accident-responders should be aware. The form also permits the individual to list all current medications and dosages; drug sensitivities or allergies, OTC meds, most recent tetanus shot, and any other relevant medical information. Televised test marketing has recently been completed indicating strong consumer interest in the Emer-Medic-Pack.
The Patent Pending Emer-Medic-Pack was invented by Ronnie and Carol Mitchell of Chicago, IL who said, “The Emer-Medic-Pack gives first responders immediate vital information about the user. When a life is on the line, this is pertinent and vital information for rescuers to have as they care for the victim. It works.”
