When people hear emergency medications, they might think of self-treatment. But real preparedness is about guided care. That’s not what medical preparedness is about — and it’s not what Prepare Medical stands for. Being prepared doesn’t mean going it alone. It means having the right tools, at the right time, with the right support.
Prepare Medical’s emergency preparedness program is not a replacement for your doctor or the healthcare system. In fact, it’s designed to work alongside it - to fill the gaps when you’re far from a pharmacy, when care is delayed, or when you’re in a location where access to essential medications isn’t guaranteed.
Your family doctor is still your first call, whether virtually or in-person. But when immediate care isn’t accessible - like on a road trip, at a remote work site, or in an ER with multi-hour wait times - Prepare helps bridge the gap.
The process doesn’t bypass medical guidance — it actually depends on it.
At Prepare Medical, our program includes the following safeguards before a prescription is filled:
- A comprehensive health review, conducted by a licensed Canadian physician
- Physician prescribing aligned with Canadian standards of care and stewardship (medications may include antibiotics where appropriate)
- Telehealth support in case your own doctor isn’t reachable
- Detailed medical instructions with a clear expectation: you should consult a provider before using any medication
You’re never expected to guess. You’re expected to be supported.
All prescribing is done by licensed Canadian physicians, and medications are dispensed by accredited Canadian pharmacies. These providers follow all relevant Health Canada and Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) standards for telemedicine and prescription regulation, ensuring safe, responsible access when care is delayed or out of reach.
If you fall ill on a cruise ship, at a remote lodge, or mid-air on a transatlantic flight, the physician or nurse nearby may not have access to the medications you need. That’s where your emergency medications from Prepare Medical can help.
It’s not just for you - it’s a tool that helps medical professionals around you act quickly and appropriately. Our program helps them support you with medications that have already been reviewed for your health profile, dispensed according to Canadian stewardship standards and are ready to support safe treatment when care is delayed.
Being prepared doesn’t mean disconnecting from the system - it means staying connected, even when the system isn’t close by. Your Prepare order comes with the Prepare Medical Guidebook, which provides detailed information on symptoms, guidance on when to seek care, and instructions for safe use after consulting a provider.
You’re encouraged to consult:
- Your family doctor
- A local clinic or telehealth service
- Or Prepare Medical’s physician support, included with your program
Patients are educated on identifying symptoms, understanding dosages, and recognizing potential risks while engaging in telehealth consultations with partnered healthcare providers.
Prepare Medical is intended for emergency use in specific contexts, such as:
- Rural and remote areas
- Long-distance travel
- International trips where pharmacies may not be reliable
- Disaster zones and disrupted infrastructure
They medications are not for everyday use or routine illness. They’re for when minutes matter — and when you don’t want to lose time to logistics.
With Prepare Medical, you’re not alone. You’re backed by physician review, supported by medical guidance, and equipped to act responsibly with the help of professionals — whether that’s your own doctor, someone providing care in the moment, or Prepare Medical’s online physician support.
Emergency access isn’t about independence - it’s about support.
