Attaching LT/SB Tags
Note:
LT (Long Term) Tags are used for resident care.
SB (Slotted Back) Tags are used on small infants and assets.
All Tag bands are for one-time use only. For cleanliness and
sanitary reasons, Accutech recommends replacing applied
bands on a
semi-monthly basis with a maximum of one
month between changes
.
1. For LT Tags, with the snaps pointing in the
same direction as the Accutech logo, slide the
plastic band through the Slot.
(
see Figure 2.4)
2. Adjust the band length to the nearest
accommodating hole for a comfortable fit
around the patient’s extremity.
Note: Once the band is secured it cannot be
adjusted.
3. Put the male part of the Snap through the
selected hole (
see Figure 2.5).
4. Fold over the female part of the Snap and
secure to the male part by squeezing until they
snap together.
5. Using scissors, carefully trim any excess band
material
6. Using an S-TAD, activate the Tag.
7. Follow the same procedure for SB Tags.
