Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The patient's wristband contains the most accurate and up-to-date information about the patient, including their name and unique identifier. This should be matched against the information on the requisition form to ensure the correct patient is being drawn from and to prevent any errors or mix-ups. Information on the door of the patient's room or obtained from the nurse may not be as reliable or accurate, and the patient's chart may not be immediately available or accessible.
