For life saving reasons, more and more employees carry 24/7 on there person Medic Alert ID jewellery (bracelets, necklaces, wristwatch) engraved with emergency health and special needs information, including medical conditions, drug or food allergies, prescribed medications and donor information.
Some people with multiple medical issues go the extra mile subscribing to 24-hour emergency response service. Using a member ID number engraved on the back of the medical alert jewellery, first responders call a emergency hotline to get all pertinent medical information in less than two minutes --- from anywhere in the world. Before beginning treatments on an UNCONSCIOUS patient, first responders, paramedics, firefighters, police, medical technicians and healthcare professionals are trained to look for Medic Alert Identification bracelets, necklaces, watches, key holders and wallet card cards on the injured person. Hazards of wearing Medical Alert ID Jewellery in the workplace. If you are implementing a strict Workplace No Jewellery Program, what happens with employees wearing "dangling" Medical Alert Identification jewellery? During site visits, we noticed most organizations were making an exception and authorizing employees to wear there Medical Alert ID bracelets in the facility as long as it is covered up (elastic band or sticky tape). But it goes without saying, risks of accidents and injuries still exist. More importantly, we all know what happens when exceptions are made with employees. It won't take too long before you start hearing, "If S/He can wear her Medical Alert bracelet, then why can't I too cover up and wear my precious and valuable gold bracelet my spouse gave me for our 10th anniversary?!?!?!?!" Phase 2 of our Workplace No Jewellery Program equips workers wearing Medical Alert ID jewellery with a "NON-DANGLING" and "NON-HAZARDOUS" substitute product. In our No Jewellery Program, workers are informed to remove ALL dangling jewellery - as well as Medical Alert Identification jewellery (bracelets, necklaces) - and attach onto their LeClasp Worker Jewellery Holders - NO EXCEPTIONS. As a substitute (backup for, alternative) product, workers (5-10% of employees) are handed out the new LeClaspTM Medical Alert Identification KEY Holder. Tucked away in the workers trouser\jacket pockets, the LeClaspTM Medical Alert Identification KEY Holder can SAFELY BE CARRIED and KEPT ON THEIR PERSON in the place of work. For more visibility and when approved by JHSC, workers CAN effortlessly "hook" the multi benefit LeClaspTM Medical Alert Key Holder on pant loops, belt buckles, carabineer clips, lunch, tool boxes and equipment near their work area. In case of an accident, we recommend setting up a 3-person buddy system. If a worker is found unable to communicate, the "buddy" co-worker is trained to immediately guide/inform/warn first responders to search unconscious workers pockets for the LeClaspTM Medical Alert ID KEY Holder.
