Wristband barcode scanner helps healthcare field – Barcode Articles

Posted January 9, 2012

The BCI Healthcare Wristband Print System doesn't place an ID card printer in the palms of every worker, but it comes close.

Healthcare professionals can use the system to create patient ID wristbands with ease. The kit includes the Zebra HC100 direct thermal barcode/label printer specifically designed to meet the demands of the healthcare industry. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) estimates the licensed practical and licensed vocational nurses field will increase by nearly 22 percent between 2008 and 2018. In addition, the healthcare industry will generate 3.2 million new wage and salary jobs during the same timeframe due to the increasing elderly population, according to the BLS. The wristband print system can assist healthcare workers as industry growth is expected.

The package is a cost-effective option that includes simple-to-insert cartridges that feature antimicrobial-coated wristbands. Once users put the wristband cartridge into their printer, they'll be able to print wristbands instantly.

The system includes a USB communication cable and a label/wristband design software to meet any hospitals needs. The unit contains a 2D barcode scanner featuring disinfectant-ready housing ideal for healthcare professionals.
