Patient wristband:
Ensure correct allocation
by means of a photo
Printed wristbands with barcode and
text can be used to identify patients
reliably. In many hospitals, they are
used not only for specific groups
(e. g. infants, intensive care patients),
but also for all in-patients. Patient
wristbands lower the risk of mix-ups,
and the associated treatment or medi-
cation error. You can use a colour
ID photo to identify unresponsive
or anaesthetised patients as well as
children, thereby assigning the right
medications and therapies to them.
GREATER SECURITY FOR
DOCTORS AND PATIENTS
Europe’s hospitals and clinics are investing in solutions
for the error-free identification of patients and to improve
process quality. Colourfully printed labels represent a
small investment with a large impact. Colour protects life
and health when doctors and carers have to make crucial
decisions under time pressure.
Medical controlling:
Charge costly medica-
tions correctly
Hospitals and clinics can lose large
sums of money when elective ser-
vices or very expensive medications
are not charged completely. Staff
work under time pressure and devote
their full attention to the patient. If
your organisation fails to document
elective services seamlessly, then
you lose money. Colour labels give
your staff a clear visual indication –
from the moment that drugs are
dispensed that certain high-priced
medications have to be carefully
documented.
Injections and infusions:
Label your preparations
In the operating room, at the intensive
care station and in the emergency
room, certain applications require the
preparation of injections and infu-
sions a short time in advance. It is
possible that the medication drawn
up into a syringe loses its original la-
bel. Colour labels that can be printed
on demand help your staff declare the
contents according to the “click and
paste” principle – quickly and conveni-
ently. This method saves time while
substantially raising your process
quality.
