Code4Armour™ grew out of Founder Mark Litman's personal experience as a front line paramedic. Having attended thousands of medical emergencies, Mark knows first-hand that a First Responder's biggest challenge is arriving on the scene of an accident and not having critical information on the patient that could help save their life. This gets magnified when the patient has special medical needs. Code4Armour delivers the patients Personal Health Information to First Responders, hands-free, in seconds, at the exact time it's needed.

Code4Armour™ has been working with the 52 EMS services across Ontario implementing pilot programs with a goal to have every service in Ontario utilizing Code4Armour by the end of the year. In addition to a previously announced partnership with the United Way York Region, Code4Armour™ has already been well-received by leaders at various associations dealing with Autism, Epilepsy, Alzheimer's, Heart, Stroke, retirement homes and private medical providers.
