About StickyJ Medical ID DNR Bracelets
StickyJ Medical ID provides specialized identifier bracelets designed to help Emergency Medical Services (EMS) personnel in Florida locate your Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) order quickly. The bracelets include instructions for EMS to check your purse or wallet for your DNR document. Many Floridians who have a DNR order and are not institutionalized have said they would prefer not to have to wear the state's yellow paper bracelet out in public, so we've created a metal bracelet alternative that will alert EMS personnel that a DNR order exists, and where it can be found (you'll need to carry a copy of your DNR order in your wallet or purse).
QR Code Option for Quick DNR Access
For a modest additional fee, StickyJ Medical ID offers an optional QR Code feature with your medical ID bracelet. If you select this option, you can send us a copy of your DNR order, which we will securely digitize and upload to our protected online database. The QR Code, engraved on the back of your bracelet, allows paramedics and emergency responders to use a smartphone to scan and immediately view an image of your DNR order. This can be extremely useful when time is of the essence.
To add the QR Code option, you must either scan-and-upload OR mail a copy of your Do Not Resuscitate order to StickyJ Medical ID. Once received, we will securely store your document online, making it accessible to EMS personnel whenever necessary. (Note: if you are planning to scan and upload your DNR, we recommend using Adobe Scan. It's a free app available for both Apple and Android phones).
Features of the Florida DNR Bracelet
The Florida Do Not Resuscitate ID bracelet by StickyJ Medical ID offers peace of mind by ensuring EMS personnel are aware of your DNR status and know exactly where to locate your DNR documentation. The front of the metal bracelet features the internationally recognized emergency medical symbol and information about the location of your DNR order. The back of the bracelet provides space for several lines of engraving, where you can include your name and an emergency contact phone number.
When ordering your bracelet, please specify whether your DNR order is kept in your purse or your wallet by selecting “DNR in Purse” or “DNR in Wallet.” For questions, you may contact StickyJ Medical ID at 727-823-9500.

Important Legal Notice
Please be aware that the bracelet itself is not legally sufficient for EMS personnel to withhold resuscitation efforts. In the event of a cardiac emergency, you must have a copy of your actual Do Not Resuscitate Order with you, and it must be accessible to emergency responders. Only a medical professional can issue a Do Not Resuscitate Order. Additionally, some state-approved agencies may offer their own DNR bracelet options. For more information about your choices and legal requirements, consult with your physician.
