How CareID works
One scan.
A place to start.
Keep CareID on your wrist, in your wallet or on your phone. A scan opens general guidance for the condition you choose, plus the personal emergency information you’ve published if you have Personalized CareID.
No CareID app or helper login. Internet access is required to open the online page.
