Make the invisible visible
A visible ID can provide immediate context that you are living with lymphoedema.
LymphAware ID is a physical ID card linked to your patient-controlled QR profile. It helps you share key information quickly and clearly — so you can feel confident, understood and in control. As its name suggests, LymphAware ID is also an awareness tool — helping others better understand lymphoedema and the practical ways it can affect the person living with it.
Membership includes:
Your card, your profile and your information — controlled by you.
PRIVACY BY DESIGN
Why LymphAware ID?
Living with lymphoedema can mean repeatedly having to explain not only your condition, but how it affects you, your needs and the support that may help you.
Many medical identification systems are designed primarily to communicate critical medical information. LymphAware ID has a different focus: helping you communicate how lymphoedema affects you in everyday, healthcare and unexpected situations.
Using a physical ID card and patient-controlled QR-linked profile, you choose the information you want to make available — so others can understand not just what condition you have, but what may help you in that moment.
Your card provides important information at a glance, while your profile can provide additional information when more detail would be helpful.
LymphAware ID supports communication and awareness. It does not provide medical diagnosis or replace professional medical advice.
The value of being visible
Wearing LymphAware ID can help make an often invisible condition visible — providing context, encouraging understanding and helping raise awareness of lymphoedema.
A visible ID can provide immediate context that you are living with lymphoedema.
It can help start the conversation without you always having to explain your condition from the beginning.

Additional language packages
If you regularly travel, spend time abroad or would find another language useful, you can add an additional language package to your membership.
An additional language package provides a dedicated card in the chosen language, linked to a QR profile presented in that same language — while keeping the familiar LymphAware ID profile design.
For example, a French language package would provide a French-language LymphAware ID card and a QR-linked profile presented in French.
Choose the Multilingual package when joining, or add another language later from your Patient Portal. You complete your main English profile and LymphAware ID prepares the translation for you. Only approved languages can be selected.

For professionals
