How pediatric wrist bands can help keep babies safe
1. How Pediatric Wrist Bands Can Help
Keep Babies Safe
Hospital staff and parents alike often feel the joy of a new baby in a hospital. These hospital
workers want to keep newborn babies, as well as babies in the hospital for treatments, as
safe as possible. Pediatric wrist bands help keep the hospital’s most precious and
vulnerable patients safe and secure.
Photo Identification
A standard wrist band without any photo identification can be helpful, but pediatric wrist
bands that feature children’s faces are one of the best ways to keep them safe. Not only
can caregivers verify the patient’s identity by confirming printed material, but they are also
able to visually check the patient’s appearance to clarify any misconceptions and double
check the child’s identity. This provides an instant two-step process to add security and
safety to any pediatric unit. It also provides a simple way for staff to identify an infant who is
not on the proper floor for any given reason.
2. Instant Information Access
Any number of situations, including emergencies, spontaneously occur in a hospital setting
at any moment that call for quick access to the patient’s pertinent information, such as blood
type, allergens and other important data. A quick scan of the barcode on the patient’s band
will bring up the patients Electronic Heath Record. Scrambling for a file or for a parent’s
confirmation of details can cost life-saving minutes. Pediatric wrist bands provide instant
access to the EHR for professionals providing treatment. This information can also be life-
saving, especially if it prevents the patient from receiving a medication he or she is allergic
to, alerts caregivers to a seizure condition, or otherwise reveals highly important data.
Simple Scanning Processing
Creating a uniform identification process within a hospital has never been easy, but the
modern development of wrist bands provides the best process. This simple scan of the
barcode ensures the patient’s full safety whether he or she is receiving an x-ray, having
blood work done or being prepared for an operation. Each care provider can rapidly confirm
identification and any pertinent details no matter his or her department, providing the best
possible care according to the patient’s unique needs and keeping the patient’s identity
clear throughout his or her entire hospital stay.
Durability
A wrist band remains firmly yet comfortably secured, creating a durable method to access
the HER by simply scanning the barcode.. Children often pick at uncomfortable items they
wish to have removed, so a comfortable and secure band is very important in a pediatric
unit. The durable nature of these wristbands ensures not only that children are comfortable
wearing them, but that children cannot remove them, either. Simply maintaining a lasting
band can keep babies safe.
It is never fun for parents to see their children in the hospital, but the use of wrist bands can
provide them comfort in knowing that their children are receiving excellent care. Physicians
and nurses can explain how these wrist bands add to the security and safety of their
children. Wrist bands are a perfect way to instantly boost patient safety.
