Emergency information – QR code/link

Categories: General questions, Membership

To ensure that your healthcare professional only performs the medical procedures you agree to, even in an emergency and when you are unresponsive, we have placed the emergency information on your member ID card: both as a link and as a QR code.

Medical professionals can scan the QR code on your member ID card directly, e.g. with a tablet, where they have immediate access to all your relevant medical data as well as your complete patient directive. Alternatively, they can also copy/enter the link into a browser and retrieve it there. The result is the same in both cases, and in both cases a random code is generated as an intermediate step, which makes it impossible for a hacker to view other SafeBlood members living wills. In our case, the purpose of all this is, among other things, to prevent mRNA products from entering your body without your explicit consent. And also, to ensure that your medical preferences are evident, visible and respected in all medical matters.

In the living will, you set out all medical and legal details, but you also designate there, for example, a trusted person to represent your interests if you are unresponsive.

An additional plus of our emergency information solution is that the living will called up by the QR-code can be translated by emergency medical personnel into most common world languages in a matter of seconds. This ensures that even when traveling to remote areas, you will be able to provide the attending staff with the ability to understand your medical wishes.

We recommend that you carry the member ID card with the emergency code in a printed version with you, but also copy it into the emergency information on your smartphone. Instructions on how to do this can be found at the very bottom of the Member ID page in your Member Access. On the lock screen of your smartphone, one has access to your data even if it is protected by a code.

Non-members can find a sample version of an emergency information here.
