Visibility: Choose a design that makes the QR code recognizable and identifiable as a medical alert. This ensures that responders immediately know that they can be scanned for vital information in an emergency.
Simplicity: Avoid overly fancy or complex designs that could obscure the QR code or make the item appear like a regular accessory. The goal is for anyone to recognize the item as a medical alert, even in high-stress situations.
Incorporating a call to action: By adding a call to action (CTA) such as “Scan to Help Me,” you can further highlight the purpose of the QR code and direct immediate action.
More accessories: Consider incorporating QR codes into more items you wear or carry regularly, such as a combination bracelet and phone case, to ensure your medical information is always accessible no matter the situation.
Update regularly: Make sure the information associated with your health alert QR code is up-to-date, including any new medical conditions, medications, or emergency contacts.
Inform close contacts: Let family, friends, and coworkers know about your health alert QR code and its purpose so they can help or inform others in case of an emergency.
