Two Ways to Access Your Emergency Information

With our QR code products, a first aider has two ways of quickly accessing your living will in an emergency.

Route 01

Scan the QR code

A volunteer will scan the code on your wristband, tag, or card.

Route 02

Enter your PIN

Alternatively, you can enter your personal PIN on the emergency page.

Both methods give you immediate access to your shared emergency information—no app or sign-up required.

What Happens During a Scan or When Entering a PIN

Both methods access your shared emergency information and notify the people who need to know.
