An apparatus for identifying and providing information relating to a patient in a healthcare facility comprises a wristband worn by the patient and a radio frequency identification (RFID) transponder coupled to the wristband. The transponder is capable of automatically and periodically generating and transmitting a first signal encoding the identity and location of the patient to an RF receiver, and generating and transmitting a second signal encoding the identity and the medical records of the patient to an RFID reader in response to receiving an interrogation signal from the reader. The reader may be operatively coupled to a device for providing medical treatment or diagnosis.
