About
MedicAlert Foundation Canada is a registered charity established in 1956, focused on protecting lives through reliable medical identification services. Based in Toronto, it serves over one million Canadians with chronic or complex health conditions, disabilities, or cognitive impairments. The organization ensures that first responders can quickly access critical health information during emergencies. The Foundation provides individually engraved medical IDs, such as bracelets and necklaces, linked to secure medical profiles. These IDs are recognized by emergency personnel across Canada. MedicAlert also offers a 24/7 emergency hotline staffed by trained professionals who relay vital health details to responders and designated contacts. In addition to emergency services, MedicAlert supports safe participation in daily activities and medical appointments, with specialized programs for vulnerable populations, including children and seniors with dementia. Members can manage their health profiles online, keeping their information current and accessible. MedicAlert Foundation Canada is committed to transparency and ethical fundraising, collaborating with emergency services to enhance care delivery. It generates revenue through member subscriptions, sales of medical ID products, and fundraising efforts, while managing Canada’s only Emergency Health Information database.
