When you can't speak, this speaks for you.
Create a Medical Directive that tells emergency teams exactly what you accept and refuse — accessible from your phone, your wallet, or a QR code scan.
From your phone to the emergency room
Five steps between your decisions and the people who need them.
Same accident. Different preparation.
Ana is unconscious after a collision. The ER team needs to act. Her husband Marco is 40 minutes away. When he arrives, a doctor asks: does she accept blood transfusions? Marco thinks he knows — but he's not sure about plasma fractions, or salvaged blood. The team waits. Marco guesses. Neither of them will ever know if the right decisions were made.
A paramedic sees the emblem on Ana's lock screen, scans the QR code, and instantly reaches her healthcare agent: Marco's name, phone number, and relationship. The ER team calls Marco directly — no searching, no guessing who to contact. Marco already knows Ana's wishes in detail. He speaks for her with confidence, not confusion.
David's mother had emergency surgery last year. No one knew her exact wishes. His sister said one thing, his father said another. It took the ethics board two hours to decide. David created his Directive that weekend — it took eleven minutes. Then he told his mother: now do yours.
Your directive needs a team
Creating your directive is step one. Making sure the right people are ready to act is everything else.
Decide today, so no one has to guess tomorrow.
It takes about ten minutes. It costs nothing. And it could be the most important preparation you ever make.
