A Smarter Way to Communicate Critical Patient Information

The Patient Care Sign is available in multiple configurations: Standard (8, 10, or 12 icon tabs), SlimLine (4 or 8 icon tabs for limited wall space), and Dual Occupancy (16 icon tabs for shared rooms). Each can be ordered with or without custom headers, and all include the infection control insert window.

The Patient Care Sign addresses a critical communication gap by replacing handwritten notes, magnets, and improvised solutions with a standardized, tamper-resistant system. It reduces visual clutter, ensures room-to-room consistency, and displays critical patient information—such as fall risk, isolation status, and special precautions—clearly outside each room, improving staff awareness and patient safety outcomes.

Yes. Every Patient Care Sign program is fully customizable to align with your facility's standards, branding, and operational needs. You can select custom header shapes, colors, logos, and typography; choose from our comprehensive icon library or create department-specific icons; and design branded infection control inserts that match your system-wide protocols and color-coding standards.

The Patient Care Sign is ADA and HIPAA compliant, supports National Patient Safety Goals, and is built to healthcare standards with injection-molded, disinfectable components designed for long-term durability in clinical environments. It combines room identification, patient status communication, and infectious disease placards in one standardized system, helping reduce hospital-acquired infections and improve HCAHPS scores.

L&H Companies holds the patent on the locking, interchangeable icon system used in the Patient Care Sign, making us the only licensed provider of this specific technology. Our tamper-resistant design prevents patients and visitors from altering critical information, while one-handed operation supports efficient workflows—features developed directly from observing how nurses communicate throughout their shifts.
