MEDIC ALERT<br />
FOUNDATION<br />
MedicAlert® Foundation is Australia’s only not-forprofit<br />
organisation that provides a 24/7 personal<br />
medical emergency information and identification<br />
service. A MedicAlert emblem is vital for anyone<br />
with a medical condition, allergy, taking regular medication or special needs that should<br />
be known in an emergency.<br />
Worn around the neck or wrist, the genuine MedicAlert emblem is widely recognised and<br />
trusted by emergency services and healthcare professionals. Each emblem is customengraved<br />
with the wearer’s key medical condition(s) or vital information, personal<br />
identification number and the 24/7 emergency hotline number.<br />
Emergency services and healthcare professionals are trained to look the MedicAlert<br />
emblem and the information it holds. They can call the 24/7 emergency hotline for further<br />
details held on a secure national database.<br />
Our professional Membership Services team and volunteers, support our member<br />
community from the Foundation’s national office in Adelaide, South Australia.<br />
The Foundation belongs to a worldwide network of affiliate organisations. Introduced into<br />
Australia by <strong>Rotary</strong> District 250 and St John Council, the Australia Medic Alert Foundation<br />
has protected over 300,000 Australians since 1971.<br />
MedicAlert Foundation seeks the support of District Governors and District Committee<br />
Service Chairman to encourage Clubs to participate in the Annual <strong>Rotary</strong> Club Supporter<br />
Program by paying $5.00 per member each year. Dinner plaque stickers are allocated in<br />
recognition of Clubs who support this vital community services project.<br />
