General Information
The Texas Wristband Project is a statewide initiative that will electronically link pre-hospital to hospital patient records throughout the continuum of care and resolve any extenuating circumstances with patient accountability during disaster-related incidents, mass casualties, and evacuations. All patients presenting with a Texas Wristband should have the number logged in ther respected care records (ePCR and EMR).
These wristbands will be appropriately distributed to DSHS-Licensed EMS agencies, and hospitals to facilitate EMS transports, inter-facility transfers, and/or other SETRAC approved situations or events in which wristbands may be needed or required (i.e. MCI, evacuation).
For more information, please contact a SETRAC team member.
