Tuesday's Tip - How to Determine Your Medical Bracelet Attachment Size

When you purchase a medical bracelet online it can be difficult to know what is the best length for you.  Here is a guide that will help you determine which length you need.

Determining Your Total Bracelet Size

1.  Using a tape measure, measure your wrist where you would normally wear a bracelet.  If you don't have a tape measure that easily wraps around your wrist you could wrap a string around your wrist and measure the length of the string.  This is your wrist size.

2.  Depending on how snug or loose you would like your bracelet, add about ¼ to 1¼ inches to your wrist size.  This is your total bracelet size.

Determining Your Medical Bracelet Attachment Size:

1.  Measure the length of your medical id tag.

2.  Subtract the length of your medical id tag from your total bracelet size (directions above) .  This is the approximate size of the medical bracelet attachment you will need.
