FlashID InternationalflashID® Emergency Identification System

The World's most innovative, reliable and inexpensive aid to personal safety, the patented flashID® Emergency Identification System™ provides a simple and accurate means of identifying people in the case of accident, collapse, and so on.

Put simply, the System comprises two components:

First is a USB flash device designed to be carried on the person, whether attached to a key ring, on a chain or lanyard around the neck, or simply carried in the pocket, purse or hand bag.

Second is the Emergency Identification Document (EID), which is a simple Microsoft Word file embedded in the device, containing as much personal and medical information as its owner desires.

Coloured the internationally recognised emergency green, the flashID device also has a white cross for immediate identification by emergency services workers.

Importantly,the flashID EID can be read on any computer running on Windows 98 or above and equipped with a USB port.

Emergency and trauma specialists the world over are agreed on the importance of accurate information being available when patients present.

It is the importance of the ready availability of this information that is addressed by the various flashID models now available Australia-wide.

Data carried

The identification data is carried in a Microsoft™ Word document which comes pre-loaded on the device, and which is then completed by the owner.

This document is easily completed, has provision for a photograph of the owner and includes instructions to guard against tampering.

Typically it would include personal and contact details, alerts for particular medical conditions or allergies, the name and contact details for the owner’s GP, and details for next of kin or other emergency contacts.

Also, in the event of death, it will also show whether the owner is registered as an organ donor and contain the number of the owner's donor registration card.
