Subject: Pediatric psych patient wristband help
Hello!!
my children's emergency is currently having a struggle with placing wristbands on the psych patient population. The kids seem to bite them off, rip them off, eat them… does anyone have a better idea as far as placing wrist bands on psych patients?
thanks in advance!
