– RVer Shirley Mendonca who designed a medical alert flag to fly in case of an emergency while traveling is featured on Women RVers.com.

Hello, 🙂
I wanted to thank you once again for featuring the article about my Emergency Medical flag. I have since made some improvements on the flag. I have added a red strobe light on the of flag which now makes it easier for the medical personnel to locate a RV at night.
I have heard some amazing stories from people who have bought the flag and now feel much safer just having,
Thank you. You have made several Rvers feel much safer when they arrived.
Sincerely,
Shirley Mendonca
