St. John's Hospital Realizes Significant Cost And Care Improvements

St. John’s Hospital recognized the limitations of embossed ID wristbands. To further advance system-wide patient care, a collaborative team from St. John’s admissions, purchasing, nursing, medical records, and HIS departments identified deficiencies in their current patient identification, breaking these down into two categories—equipment and the actual wristbands.

• Each registration point required a separate set of equipment and supplies
• The equipment supported limited flexibility and single functionality
• The embosser/imprinter took up valuable counter/work space
• The machine, consumables and service plans were all costly
