<"My father suffered a heart attack and asked my mother, well what medications is he taking. Well no one knew exactly. The only thing they could say was, it's a pill this big that is yellow. And consequently, he had a serious drug interaction in his eyes, and ended up staying in the hospital for an extended period of time.">Marco Camacho\Co-Inventor, CARE Memory Band
THAT IS WHEN MARCO AND HIS BROTHER CESARE BOTH SAID THAT THERE HAS TO BE A BETTER WAY.
OVER 2 YEARS LATER, THEY CREATED THE CARE MEMORY BAND.
IT A BRACELET THAT HAS A USB FLASH DRIVE, IN WHICH MEDICAL HISTORY CAN BE ENTERED BY A PATIENT.
INFORMATION SUCH AS SURGICAL HISTORY, ALERGIES AND OTHER HEALTH CONDITIONS, AS WELL AS DRUG INTERACTIONS.
THE BAND IS AVAILABLE AT ALL HEB PHARMACIES IN THE STATE OF TEXAS.
THE PHARMACY MANAGER AT HEB IN VICTORIA, DAWN MARTYN, SAYS THIS WRIST BAND IS IMPORTANT IN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS.
<"In the course of an emergency, you may forget what your allergic to, or forget what you on. Because your not thinking clearly, because you in an emergency. And the medical information will help determine if you are allergic to something. So they would avoid giving to you something that you might have a reaction to.">Dawn Martyn\H-E-B Pharmacy Manager
THE INVENTORS SAY THOUSANDS HAVE ALREADY BEEN SOLD IN TEXAS. BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE CAMACHO FAMILY, IS THAT THE CARE MEMORY BAND IS SAVING LIVES.
<"For example, we had one woman who suffered an asthmatic episode, so severe that she could'nt speak. And so the care memory band spoke for her. They had to life flight her from Lagrange Texas to Austin Medical Center.">Marco Camacho\Co-Inventor, CARE Memory Wrist Band
