Premium Add-On

NFC Wristbands

Tap-to-identify wristbands for donor check-in, chair assignment, and recovery tracking. A single tap replaces manual ID checks at every station, creating a documented chain of care from arrival to departure.

Instant identificationTap at check-in, phlebotomy, recovery. No name lookups, no wasted steps.

Recovery assuranceEvery wellness check is timestamped and tied to the donor. Auditable duty-of-care record.

Works without phonesDonors who skip the QR check-in still get tracked through the wristband. No gaps.

Single-use TyvekLightweight, comfortable, disposable. Pre-encoded and ready to use out of the box.

NFC wristbands are available through your Pulse subscription. Order directly from your Pulse dashboard or contact your account team.
