Printed barcode labels are placed on the face of the bracelet and a waterproof cover snaps over the label to protect it. Any type of barcodes (1D, 2D or QR) can be used and there is space for added information such as room and name.
The bracelet contains an embedded NFC chip scannable with NFC readers or Smartphones. In addition, the NFC chip can store several hundred characters of information for immediate or offline access.
Critical Condition Indicators
Small Color Risk Pins with Round heads can be inserted into special
holes on the bracelet to flag essential medical conditions. Six holes are located on either side of the bracelet to provide a view regardless of the orientation of the patient's wrists. The pins are removable.
The bracelet holes are designed so the heads of the pins drop
below the surface of the band making it difficult for the wearer to pry out the pins.

pair of snaps
