Common Color-Coded Bracelets
Many states and healthcare systems have adopted this set of common color-coded standards:
- Fall Risk (yellow)
- Allergy (red)
- Latex Allery (green)
- DNR (purple)
- Restricted Extremity (pink)
Each color-coded band lets the staff know at a glance that the patient has special needs. The caregiver knows immediately how to treat a patient wearing one of these bands, which decreases the risk of serious error.
