Description
Patient identification bands for children and infants are soft, secure wristbands designed to keep the right child matched with the right care at every step. Sized for tiny wrists and sensitive skin, these bands provide a durable, legible space for essential identifiers such as name, date of birth, medical record number, and scannable codes. The goal is simple: reduce misidentification and streamline care from admission to discharge.
Key features and benefits:
• Pediatric and neonatal sizing with gentle, rounded edges for comfort.
• Non-transferable, tamper-evident closures that show when a band has been opened.
• Write-on panel or printable surface for clear text, barcodes, or QR codes.
• Water- and alcohol-resistant materials that stay readable through hygiene routines.
• Low-lint, smooth finish to minimize irritation on delicate skin.
• Color and icon options for quick visual cues (allergy, fall risk, mother–infant matching).
• Compatible with common hospital labeling workflows (handwritten, thermal, or laser-printed).
Where they’re used:
