An ounce of prevention

[CosmicTravel]

Hi Forum,
Remember that old phrase "An ounce of prevention, is worth a pound of cure"....?

I came across an interesting service that may be of interest to travelers (I liked the idea so much, I posted it on my website as the Weekly Travel Offer- www.travel-manual.com).

LIFEcardServices.com is a collection of three services which helps travelers protect their health, home and sensitive information. Members can store vital data to access when they need it the most. The three services are for health - www.Lifecardhealth.com (you carry a card in your wallet and build a medical history in case of emergency), www.Lifecardhome.com (which lets you establish a contact list in case something happens to your home - neighbors contact you via a property sticker) and LIFEcardSecure.com which lets you store information that needs to be secure (encrypted) and accessed if you lose information.

I'm a life long traveler and this is something I will be recommending to others for a long time to come!

Check it out - www.Lifecardservices.com

the problem is - anybody who finds your card can access your medical and personal information and potentially still your identity or harm you in many other ways.

if you have serious medical condition an ordinary basic health information and family contact number should be carried with you all the time - I don't think paramedics do have onboard internet terminal to find your medical conditions stored somewhere on the internet
