I think the patient was concerned because she did not want to reveal that she was having surgery or answer questions regarding the surgery, and the blood bank armband drew attention.

The blood bank recently received a comment card from a patient who was concerned about wearing the blood bank ID band before surgery. She received several questions regarding why she was wearing the bracelet. It was also brought to our attention that the bracelet contained protected information. We are looking into how we can address these concerns. Any thoughts?
