Wristbands for positive patient identification

Patient wristbands play an important role throughout a patient’s inpatient or outpatient stay. The wristband contains critical information about the patient, including his/her name, identification number, blood type, allergies, etc., to enable healthcare service providers to enhance patient safety, such as by ensuring the right medications and treatments are provided to the right patient at the right time.

Compared to handwritten wristbands, printed wristbands leveraging auto-ID technologies such as barcodes and RFID provide additional peace of mind as they can be scanned for positive patient identification while avoiding human errors such as illegibility or misreading of information.
