Using yoyo reels and badge holders in the hospital environment is practical and safe

In the hospital sector, efficiency, safety and convenience are top priorities. The devices often used to meet these needs are badge reels, also known as "yoyos" or "reel zips", and badge holders, which play an essential role. These accessories are especially suitable for healthcare professionals who require quick access to their ID badges and need to keep them secure. Find out how these products offered by PDC Healthcare improve the daily lives of hospital workers and deliver optimum access management.

Reel badge holders: practical and safe for everyday use

What is a yoyo reel?

A yoyo reel is a small device with a retractable cord that can be used to hang a badge, key or other object, keeping it within easy reach. The "yoyo" system means that users can easily pull out their badge and put it back in, without having to remove it from the holder. This is ideal for work environments where quick, frequent access to secure areas is required, such as hospitals.

Why are badge reels essential in the hospital environment?

1. Save time and more efficient: healthcare professionals don't have to remove their badge from the badge holder to scan it. The extendable cord makes it easy to present to badge readers without any extra effort, so you can quickly pass through the secure areas of the hospital.
2. Comfortable and ergonomic: yoyo reels are designed to be worn all day long without getting in the way. The retractable mechanism prevents friction with clothing or other medical equipment.
3. Secure badges: the badge reel ensures that the badge stays attached and cannot be lost or dropped, which is particularly important in an environment where every professional needs to be easily identifiable.
4. Hygiene: By reducing the need to remove or handle the badge frequently, the retractable system reduces the risk of cross-contamination, an essential factor in the hospital environment.
