Abstract

The preliminary study results showed that the wristbands had not been put on for all patients, and the stages of the bracelet fitting procedures were not the same. The impact of not installing a bracelet is a risk if there is an error in providing health services. Although there is no data, there have been reports of errors in providing services. The research objective was to determine the use of identity: wristband as evidence of patient safety at dr. Soekardjo Hospital City of Tasikmalaya in 2017. This research type is a mixed-method with in-depth interview data collection methods, field observations, documentation studies, and Focus Group Discussions. Sampling was done by snowball sampling from the Quality Committee, medical services/pediatricians, nurses/ midwives, inpatient registration officers. The collected data were analyzed descriptively and performed content analysis. The implementation of the lowest bracelet fitting was saying greetings (0%), giving information to patients if the bracelet was loose immediately reported to the officer (0%). Whereas the release of the wristband identity had the highest implementation, namely the procedure of preparing tools and materials with 93.3%, the removal of the bracelet was carried out by 93.3% of duty nurses. In comparison, the lowest implementation procedure was related to soft skills in saying greetings 0%, saying thank you 0 %. There are two colors of the bracelet, namely blue for men and pink for women. The material of the bracelet is safe and has never been reported as having allergies.

The placement and removal of the wristbands are not following the existing Standard Operating Procedures (SPO). The redesign of the bracelet is possible according to the needs of the hospital. It needs commitment from all parties by prioritizing patient safety, and it is necessary to revise the SPO referring to existing regulations and adjust their implementation.
