Medic Alert Bracelet

[bitter_betsy, BSN]

For those of you that have medical alert bracelets, how do you handle that with clinicals and actual working in a hospital? I'm not allowed to wear mine at work now, but my managers know what to do if something happens to me. I have my phone set up with proper information (but does anyone ever really look??). Do you tell your preceptor, instructors... how do you let people know without them thinking you are expecting preferential treatment or anything out of the norm? I really don't want to be that pain in the butt, but I also don't want to die because someone doesn't get to the right answer fast enough.

Can you get the necklace style instead?

I wear a tiny cross that I never take off. I was thinking I would just put my bracelet and wedding ring on a clasp on my cross. Ive read others do something similar with their rings. I have the ability to take just the id portion off now. Thats probably my best bet. Thank you!!
