Boston, MA-NH (1888PressRelease)
April 16, 2008 - The Endur ID Light have 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 Light 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 Light is designed to be easier to wear, at only ½ wide and available in two lengths; 8” and 10”, these bands are comfortable for long term use.
Endur ID wristbands are designed specifically to meet and exceed 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.
