Rubber Awareness Wristbands - since hitting the market, something over six years ago - have become extremely popular. The idea behind awareness wristbands is simple: to promote awareness of a personal medical condition, or allergy: the idea caught on, and many now wear them to raise awareness of a specific charity or other worthy cause.
Rubber awareness wristbands are a fashion statement with a clear purpose: to convey important information. These simple and relatively inexpensive rubber wristbands are worth their weight in Gold! Alert wristbands are available and cover a range of allergies, including;
- - Asthma
- - Diabetes
- - Penicillin
- - Dairy Produce
- - Epilepsy
- - Seafood
The full range is greater: if you dont see what you need, give us a call...we'll do our best to help, and usually can.
In case of an accident or emergency, in a situation where you may not be able to speak for yourself and alert others to your condition, rubber awareness wristbands and other forms of medical identification jewellery will speak for you! In such times, prompt and correct diagnoses are essential. According to recent studies, approximately half of all medical errors made by first response medical staff are due to mistakes that are made when a patient is admitted into care.
Reactions to allergies vary - some people suffer only mild reactions, while others may suffer a much more adverse reaction. In extreme cases, allergy reactions can become a life-threatening situation. In these cases, the allergen can affect the whole body, causing a rapid drop in blood pressure. Allergy sufferers may feel dizzy: in some cases if the allergy is not controlled quickly, unconsciousness and even death can occur, so it is essential to manage acute allergies. People who suffer moderate to severe reactions are advised to wear an allergy alert at all times.
Our quality, pre-printed rubber alert wristbands are easily sterilised and are 100% hypo-allergenic (non-toxic). They have soft, rounded and pliable edges and are designed to safely break and snap if enough force is applied, or the wearer becomes snagged.
If you have some other type of allergy or medical condition, such as an allergy to dairy products, penicillin, or suffer from high blood pressure, or an abnormal heart condition - or if you are treated with medications such as warfarin, then a specialist medical rubber alert bracelet could be the solution youre looking for.
In the case of children with allergies, its very difficult to keep an eye on them at all times. Wearing an allergy bracelet, or some other form of medical ID, will provide some peace of mind. Our rubber alert wristbands come in a range of colours, are fun to wear and look great on! The trendy designs mean they're more likely to keep them on when theyre out of sight. Awareness wristbands come in a range of different colours with each representing a particular allergy, condition, or the wearers chosen cause.
Rubber alert wristbands are a cheap and simple idea that serves their intended purpose. Our wristbands are extremely robust being made from top quality pure silicone, provide a cost effective solution and a great alternative to traditional medical bracelet. But beware; don't settle for one of the cheaper, inferior brands on the market, you need something that will last, something that wont snap and fall to bits after a few weeks.
If you prefer something a bit more rugged then perhaps one of our child safety wristbands would be more suitable; extremely hardwearing and comfortable (100% latex free) and fully adjustable, they feature a robust Velcro® fastening. These wristbands might be the preference of slightly older boys and girls who want something a bit different - green camo perhaps - a pretty pink colour, or maybe purple with embroidered flower motifs.
