For more than 50 years, MedicAlert has been Australia’s most trusted provider of emergency medical information, helping first responders and healthcare professionals quickly access critical health details when they matter most. It’s the only emergency medical information service endorsed by paramedics across the country, giving Australians living with health conditions — including transplant recipients — peace of mind that their information can be found in an emergency.
The partnership is a natural fit for the transplant community, many of whom rely on having their medical history readily accessible to treating teams.
Transplant Australia and MedicAlert are kicking off the partnership by meeting with the transplant community attending the Australian Transplant Games, highlighting the shared commitment to keeping people safe and informed, both in everyday life and in a crisis.
“We are looking forward to partnering with Transplant Australia and supporting the athletes in the 2026 Australian Transplant Games. Together, we’re helping transplant donors & recipients stay active and safe by ensuring vital health information is available when it matters most.”
Chris Radbone, CEO, MedicAlert Foundation Australia
“MedicAlert is a natural alignment for our members – many already rely on it to make sure their medical information, including their transplant status, is on hand in an emergency. It’s also great to partner with a proudly Australian organisation that shares our commitment to keeping our community safe,”
Chris Thomas, CEO, Transplant Australia
The MedicAlert team will be on the ground throughout Games week and is looking forward to meeting members of the transplant community, including identifying potential ambassadors for the relationship. If you see them around Launceston, be sure to say hello.
