The finder is asked to quote the displayed unique ID number and provide a name and contact number for themselves. They are also asked for their location.

BEIDS Emergency Response Team immediately access the ‘Family ID Register’ via a web link using a password and username. They search on the unique ID number and view the owners ‘Family ID Register’ record.

Our Emergency Response Team telephone the owner using the stored contact details on the ‘Family ID Register’.

When the owner has been contacted our team inform them of the finders name, contact number and location. The owner is then responsible for contacting the finder.

When a person is found ill or injured by the emergency services BEIDS will provide the emergency services with such medical and allergy details that are stored on the ‘Family ID Register’ by the Family of the person(s) found. Detailed information will only be passed through the emergency service control room.

The BEIDS team will inform Next-of-kin of the details of an accident only when there is no likelihood that the person will die. When this is likely the responsibility to inform the next-of-kin is passed to the emergency services that will be given the details stored on the BEIDS ‘Family ID Register’.
