MyCare - A Card for Medical Emergencies
MyCare card stores the medical data of a person like information on existing medical conditions, allergies, medications they are taking etc.

While medical emergencies are fairly possible in day-to-day life, there are hardly any people who have the scientific knowledge on how to respond to such medical emergencies immediately before a doctor can be accessed, VIVO healthcare spokesperson Vikas Tripathi said.

"People are buying cars worth Rs.8-10 lakh but there is no professional first aid box, inside the car. Maximum deaths during road accidents are due to excessive bleeding and even a bandage can save lives," he said.

The handbook has a detailed list of "Do's and Don'ts" that can turn out to be life saving in some circumstances where it is important to act on a patient immediately.
