ISLAND LIFE SHORTS
Device keeps medical info at hand

Advertiser Staff and News Services

Having access to medical information during an emergency can be a lifesaver. Obtaining critical information is a challenge EMS professionals face every day. The Lifeguard30 was invented to save lives and time by providing that access to important medical records.

The device clips on a handbag, belt loop or key ring so it can be carried everywhere all the time. It displays medications, allergies, medical conditions, emergency contacts and more and doesn't require electricity, a computer, a phone or the Internet. Call 877-411-5430 or visit www.lifeguard30.com.
