Abstract

A patient wristband form has a transparent ply with an upper surface and a lower surface, and a pressure sensitive adhesive coating on the lower surface. A release ply has an upper surface and a lower surface, with a release coating on the upper surface. The transparent ply is removably mounted on the upper surface of the release ply by the pressure sensitive adhesive coating. A die cut in the transparent ply defines an elongated wristband. An opaque coating is provided on the upper surface of the transparent ply in a central portion of the elongated wristband. A die cut in the transparent ply defines an overlaminate label that is sized to cover at least a part of the central portion of the elongated wristband, thereby covering indicia printed on the opaque coating. A paper ply may also be mounted on the release ply by pressure sensitive adhesive. The paper ply defines a plurality of labels that may be printed at the same time as the wristband.
