We have implemented barcoding in our patient care and research work to provide you with a safer experience.

This patient safety initiative allows your care team to link you to your medical orders to assure accurate collection of clinical and research specimens and safe administration of blood and medications. We need your help to assure that every patient has a unique barcode. At your convenience, please visit our barcode station on the P1 level (just outside the South Elevators).

Inpatients
If you are a current inpatient, you are wearing a wristband with your unique barcode. Please keep your wristband on at all times.

Outpatients

Extended Visitor Badges
If you are an outpatient with an extended visitor badge, we can place your unique barcode on your current badge as a convenience to you. Please visit our barcode station.

Barcode Card
If you are a current outpatient without an extended visitor badge, you need to get a barcode card. Please visit our barcode station to be issued the card and bring it with you on all future visits to the Clinical Center.
