Why Our Create Your Own Medical Cards Make Sense for Real Life

Having a medical card isn’t just helpful – for many people, it’s essential. Health needs aren’t the same for everyone, and that’s why we let you create your own medical card. Whether you’ve got more than one condition, need space to list medications, or want to add extra emergency contacts, designing your own card means it fits your situation, not someone else’s.

What’s the Point of Carrying a Medical Card?

In an emergency, a medical card gives key information fast. If you can’t speak, it does it for you. Paramedics and healthcare staff get a clear view of what’s going on straight away – and that can make a difference to how quickly you get the right treatment. But it’s not just about emergencies. It can help at the pharmacy, at hospital check-ins, or when you're dealing with new doctors who don’t know your background.

Build a Medical Card That Works for You

Everyone’s health is different, so your medical card should be too. Our Create Your Own Medical Card service lets you choose what goes on it. Need a single-sided card? Or maybe double-sided to fit more information? Want colour to highlight certain points or just keep it simple in black and white? You can even add a photo if that helps make it unmistakably yours. Whether it’s naming your conditions, listing medications with dosages, or including more than two emergency contacts, it’s all possible.

Explaining your health can be stressful, especially in high-pressure situations. With a personalised card, there’s no risk of missing key details or trying to remember everything on the spot. You can clearly state your conditions, what medications you’re on, any allergies, and anything else people might need to know in a hurry. It’s all written down in your own words, ready for when it’s needed most.

Carrying a medical card that’s been built around your health brings real peace of mind. You’ll know that, if anything happens, your information is on hand and easy to understand. And it’s reassuring for family and friends too. They’ll know you’ve done what you can to stay safe and supported, even in unexpected situations.

You Know Your Health Best – Say It Your Way with Your Personalised Medical Card

No one knows your health like you do. Creating your own medical card gives you control over how your health is explained. It means no gaps, no guessing, and no confusion. If you live with a rare condition, take complex medication, or just want to make sure the right people know what matters – this is the way to do it.

It’s not just a practical task – it’s a way to make sure the right details are shared in the right way. You decide what’s important. You decide how to explain it.

How to Make Your Own Medical Card

It’s simple to create your custom medical card with us:

• Choose your card style – Single or double-sided. Colour or black and white. With or without a photo.

• Decide what to include – Think about the details that matter. Conditions, meds, allergies, and contacts.

• Write your text – Keep it clear and to the point. There’s limited space, so simple is best.

• Check everything on screen – What you see is exactly what will be printed. Make sure the spelling, layout, and information are all correct before placing your order.

As you upload everything directly onto our website you will see your card exactly as it will be printed. There’s no editing at our end, so double-check everything before going ahead. Can you see all of the text? Does it say what you want it to say? Are names, phone numbers etc correct? We can't stress this enough on how important it is that you do this before you checkout. Once your card is printed we can't make any changes. If we do spot anything that looks wrong we will contact you but in busier times it might not be spotted. When we print the cards we check the quality, not what is written.
