About us

StickyJ Medical ID and sister company Thoughtful Impressions have been family owned and operated for more than 21 years. The company is led by CEO Lori Torman, who has an eye for great quality and classic styles. In the early days of medical id bracelets (we're talking 1960's), medical alert bracelets were pretty boring -- basically engraved metal tags with curb link chains. The same styles were offered for children, just smaller (no wonder kids didn't want to wear them). And, by the end of the 20th century things hadn't improved that much. Lori was among the first to recognize that medical id's could be fashion conscious, and in 2005 launched designs in leather as well as stainless, and introduced polyester kids medical id bracelets that had cute designs. The sport strap line of child medical id's she introduced nearly 20 years ago is still the most popular line of children's medical jewelry on the market today. And, we now produce more than 100 different styles of medical alert bracelets and necklaces for men and women. Our engraved bracelets are individually custom engraved by our team of master engravers, ship within three (M-F) business days from the date you order, and all products come with a 90 warranty against manufacturing defects. Please come and shop with us today. It will be our pleasure to serve you.

Who Should have a Copy of my Advance Directive?

Who Should have a Copy of my Advance Directive?

Posted by Lori Torman on 6th Jan 2026

To ensure your medical wishes are honored, the people responsible for your care must have immediate access to your advance directive. You should distribute copies to the following: 

Key Individuals

  • Healthcare Agent/Proxy: Your primary designated decision-maker must have a copy.
  • Alternate Agents: Ensure any backup agents also have copies in case your primary choice is unavailable.
  • Primary Care Physician: Ask your doctor to upload the document directly into your permanent electronic medical record.
  • Family Members: Provide copies to your spouse, adult children, or other close relatives who would be involved in an emergency. 

Institutions and Professionals

  • Hospitals and Specialists: Give copies to any hospital where you are regularly treated and to any specialists you see for chronic conditions.
  • Attorney: If you worked with a lawyer to draft the document, they should keep a copy in their files for legal reference.
  • Faith Leaders: Some choose to provide a copy to their clergy if spiritual values heavily influence their medical decisions. 

Personal Accessibility

  • At Home: Keep a copy in an easy-to-find location (e.g., on the refrigerator or in a clearly marked "Emergency" folder). Do not store the only copy in a safety deposit box, as it may be inaccessible during an emergency.
  • On Your Person: Carry a wallet card indicating that you have an advance directive and where it is located.  Alternatively, carry a custom-engraved aluminum wallet card with a QR code from StickyJ Medical ID, which provides instant access to your advance directive form when scanned by a smartphone. Advance directive bracelets, pendants and Apple watch tags with QR codes are also available.
