Long Term Bands
Endur ID, of Lawrence, MA announces the addition of the Endur ID Long Term LT10-2-LA to the product offerings suitable for laser printers. The Endur ID Long Term has been designed for use in long term settings to bring patient identification to new levels of accuracy, flexibility and ease of use. Printed on standard b&w or color laser printers, the Endur ID Long Term bands are ready to use after printing - no laminates, clips or assembly. The wristband's material and construction is tough and able to withstand the rigors of a hospital environment, including showers, alcohol wipes and other agents directly from the printer without further protection.
The Endur ID Long Term is designed to be easier to wear, at only 1/2 inch width these bands are comfortable for long term use.
Endur ID wristbands are designed specifically to meet and exeed all current Joint Committee on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) recommendations. A bar-coded patient wristband is the foundation upon which all barcode medication systems and patient tracking systems are based.
Many methods are used to apply barcodes to wristbands; however very few allow much other information to be included. Fewer still are wristbands that allow direct color printing or color photographs at high resolution. In addition to patient identifiers, the bands can also contain other types of healthcare information important at bedside, such as doctor name, patient-specific warnings and color-coding.
Endur ID's wristbands can be easily adapted into most current patient identification systems without major investment. The only requirement is the ability to format patient information and print to a desktop laser printer.
