Support and Protect the Health and Care Wishes of the Person You Care For

This section is designed for people acting as guardians or carers. It helps you manage essential care information, responsibilities and preferences so you can provide consistent, informed support to someone else.

You can organise medical details, care routines, preferences and key information in one secure place, reducing confusion and helping you act confidently in both everyday care and urgent situations.

Advance Care Directive with QR Emergency Access

If the person you care for has an Advance Care Directive, it can be stored in their Evaheld Vault and linked to a QR Emergency Access Card, allowing authorised healthcare professionals to quickly access legally recognised instructions.

This ensures care decisions remain aligned with their wishes and can be updated as circumstances change over time.
