PDC pioneered the development of the Smart Band® RFID Wristband System in 2000 and continues to pave the path for Auto ID in Healthcare. PDC RFID solutions ensure the integrity of information between patient, host device, and/or hospital information center. Other benefits of Smart Band RFID Wristband Systems include:
Help ensure that the Five Rights of Medication Safety are achieved, facilitating real-time confirmation of the right patient, drug, dose, route, and time
RFID’s wireless, automated, and secure process ensures positive patient identification and streamlined operations
Act as portable, dynamic databases that carry patient information to be used and updated during the patient’s stay
Unlike bar code, RFID’s non-line-of-site data transmission can be read through and around the human body, clothing, bed coverings, and non-metallic materials
