Medical IDs for Women: Everything to Know

As an integral part of a woman’s daily wardrobe, a medical ID needs to transition seamlessly from the home to the workplace to the gym to a night out.

That’s where American Medical ID comes in.  The wide variety of different metal types, bracelets, and necklaces offered make it easy to select the right option for your lifestyle.

Here’s a quick rundown to help walk you through the selection process.

Metal, Silicone, and Leather Materials

Medical IDs are available in stainless steel chains, mesh, and expansion bands; 14K gold; silicone flex band; stylish leather bracelet; 10K gold; and sterling silver. The bestselling Eternity Bracelet is made of stainless steel metal but comes in black, rose gold, and gold tone as well as the traditional silver color, combining style and sturdiness. The Lynx Shine features rose gold ion plating over a durable stainless steel with a chic cubic zirconia wristband.

14K and 10K gold are beautiful and timeless, while stainless steel offers unparalleled durability. The silicone band is comfortable for all-day wear and washes easily without any worry about tarnishing. Leather fits in with today’s hottest fashion trends.

Bracelets vs. Necklaces

Bracelets work well for most women, especially those who need more room to engrave medical information. The Lynx Arc offers a 1.5” by 0.5” plate that offers room to engrave up to five lines of medical information. Women’s bracelets are available in different sizes ranging from 6.5” to 9” (with some variation for each style) to fit every wrist securely. Styles range from delicate to practical to fit everyone’s individual taste.

For women who work in healthcare or perform manual labor, wearing a bracelet may not be the best option due to frequent handwashing or the risk of getting a bracelet stuck in heavy machinery. Options range from a delicate heart charm with a subtle medical emblem that still stands out to first responders to a traditional gold medallion. You can choose from different chain widths, styles, and lengths for each necklace as well. The engraving surface is a little smaller on most necklaces, but there’s a workaround.

Purchasing My Interactive Health Record (MyIHR) for a one-time $19.95 offers easy access to a digitized list of health conditions, allergies, doctors, medications, emergency contact information, and other info that won’t fit on a medical ID.

Don’t Forget the Smartwatch

For women who wear a smartwatch or Apple watch, the Apple Watch Slide ID fits easily onto an existing smart watch band. This allows you to keep your current wristwear without needing to add another band. It also keeps all your medical information easily accessible if, for instance, you use your smartwatch to track your heart rate, monitor your step count, or store your emergency contact information.
