Every medication, every diagnosis, every appointment, and the thing the specialist said in March. Carried in your head, and repeated from memory to whoever asks next.
The Care Card holds it in one code on your own phone - so the next time someone asks, you hand it over instead of reciting it.
Download it, then enter your Activation Code once. Nothing to pay, and no account to create. The app is the best place to keep the card - it is on your phone when you need it, and it can hold a separate card for each person you look after.
Prefer not to install anything? Use it in your browser instead.
One payment, no subscription, and it does not expire - and it covers everyone you care for, not just one person. Your Activation Code arrives by email straight away, then download the app and enter it.
GST is worked out at checkout from your location, so outside Australia it is not charged. Bought for you by an organisation? You will have been sent a code instead.
The things you end up repeating - at an admission, to a new GP, to the locum at 2am, to the support worker covering a shift.
Add what you know, in any order. You can leave things blank and come back - most people build it up over a few sittings.
It lives on your phone as a QR code. No signal needed, no app to log into, nothing to remember.
Any doctor, nurse or support worker scans it and sees the summary. Nothing is installed on their end.
Download a PDF summary - for the fridge, the hospital bag, or the folder that goes with them.
On your phone. That is the whole answer, and it is the reason the rest of this is so simple.
The details are packed into the QR code on your own device. They are not uploaded, so there is no database of them anywhere - not ours, and not the organisation that gave you the card.
Nothing to sign up for and nothing to be locked out of. You are not a user of ours, and we could not identify you if we tried.
It is shown when you choose to show it. Nobody can look it up, request it, or be sent it without you handing it over.
Whether an organisation gave you the code or you bought it yourself, the card is the same.
You do not need the whole picture to begin. Put in the medications and the allergies, and you already have more than you can recite under pressure.
