NURSES FOB WATCHES

Fob watches for nurses

Fob watches give nurses an alternative to traditional wristwatches. With a simple downward glance, a fob watch gives hands free readings. This is perfect for taking pulses and respirations or simply checking the time for charting. Fob watches clip to the lapel or pocket of nurse scrubs. Their dial is turned upside down, so they are easily readable. Because fob watches do not contact the skin, they collect less moisture and have less chance of harbouring bacteria.

A wristwatch can be uncomfortable and awkward, especially because nurses are constantly washing their hands and donning gloves. Sleeves can obstruct the view of a traditional wristwatch, but fobs are perched for maximum visibility. A fob watch is completely hands free in wear and operation. Nurses who choose fob watches can use both hands to tend to the patient, rather than having to turn one awkwardly about to see the time.

While traditional fobs made of stainless or gold can be found, the most popular nurses fob watches are made with bold, bright rubber. This is ideal because they are easily wiped clean with sterile sanitizer. Some fashion fob watches have a single dial with several interchangeable fobs in various colours. The nurse can simply pop the watch dial out and select a new colour to wear.

Fob watches give nurses freedom from awkward wristwatches. They are ideal in any nursing setting, from hospitals to doctors’ offices, ambulances, clinics nursing homes and more. No nurse should work without a watch, and no watch is more comfortable and sanitary than a fob watch.
