Patient Chart: Wristbands

Using the Print LaserBands feature, staff members can generate and print wristbands directly from a patient's chart.

To enable this feature, a Super Admin must navigate to Settings > Instance and select the Print LaserBands checkbox under Patient Options. For more information on the LaserBand settings, click here. 

Required Permissions
Super Admins, Records Admins, Admins, Patient Coordinators, Case Managers, and users with the Utilization Review Internal permission can all print wristbands.

1. To begin, click on Patients, then select the desired patient.
2. From the Information tab, click on the wristband icon in their chart.
3. A new window will open, with a page formatted to the following patient information pulled from the patient's chart:
   • Full Name (LAST, First)
   • Date of Birth (DOB)
   • Age (displays on the same line as their date of birth)
   • Gender (displays on the same line as their date of birth)
   • MR Number (MRN)
   • Attending physician (via care team assignments) (ATT)
   • Allergies (ALL)
   • Admission Date (ADM)  
4. This page can be printed using a Zebra® LaserBand® or LaserBand2® printer.

Note: If you get a 500 error when trying to print patient wristbands, make sure that the patient's name does not contain any special characters (for example, Cătălin, José, etc.).
