Advocating for People Who Cannot Speak for Themselves in a Health Emergency

Every day in every community across Canada, people experience health emergencies when minutes—or even seconds—count. Paramedics, emergency room teams, police officers, firefighters, and others are there to help. But they need accurate, up-to-date information to understand the issues these individuals face and respond accordingly.

As our health systems become increasingly complex and fragmented, there’s advocacy that needs to happen now. That’s why MedicAlert is working together with government to ensure the safety of people living in Canada in their most vulnerable moments.
