San Francisco, CA - The National Auto Sport Association (NASA)
and Vital ID have teamed up to offer racers the latest in emergency
medical information technology.
Until recently, the only way for emergency responders to get important
information from accident victims was by playing detective - either
by asking questions of injured survivors or by sifting through their
personal effects and hoping to find the answers there.
Through this strategic alliance, NASA members will now be able
to create their own personal emergency information records and keep
them up-to-date and accurate in the privacy of their own homes.
Vital ID stores these records safely and securely, making them available
to authorized medical personnel quickly and privately in the event
of an accident.
Seconds count, whether in a racing accident
or any medical emergency!
See your NASA mailing for further details.
About Vital ID: Founded in 2001 to offer its members control
of the vital information emergency medical personnel need at an
accident scene or in the ER, Vital ID has developed an innovative
system for ensuring their members have the ability to safely and
securely store that information before a crisis occurs and have
it made available quickly and privately to the certified emergency
professionals who come to their aid. www.vitalid.com
About The National Auto Sport Association: Formed in 1991
to deliver high quality motorsports events to enthusiasts at major
racing venues throughout the nation, NASA has created programs that
allow owners of both racecars and high-performance street-driven
vehicles to experience the excitement of putting their cars on the
racetrack in a safe and controlled environment. NASA's High Performance
Driving Events (HPDE's) have given many race fans the chance to
get on the track with their own cars and race classes such as Pro-7,
American Iron, United States Touring Car Championship, and American
Stock Car Challenge, providing both racers and fans alike with exciting
competition action. With over 15 Chapters and 10,000 members, NASA
is one of the fastest growing and most innovative racing enthusiast
organizations in the country.
