Choose the Right Door Hanger
Select the message based on what staff need people approaching the room to know before entering.
Use the blank door hanger for handwritten messages. The do not enter door hanger gives a direct access restriction, while the treatment in progress door hanger is suited to rooms where procedures or care are underway. The evacuation door hanger communicates Occupied/Evacuated room status during an emergency.
Additional door hangers address fall risk, isolation precautions, oxygen use, fluid or NPO restrictions, biohazards, and instructions to see a nurse before entering.
Reusable Door Hangers for Changing Room Status
Because door hangers can be placed when needed and removed afterward, they work well for information that changes with the patient, procedure, or room status. They also help keep temporary instructions separate from permanent room identification signs.
These plastic hangers measure 8.25" x 3.25" and are sold in packs of 10, making it easy to keep commonly used messages available for staff.
Door Hangers for Patient Rooms and Care Areas
Healthcare facilities can use door hangers in patient rooms, treatment areas, therapy spaces, and other locations where temporary instructions need to be visible before someone enters. Positioning the message directly on the door handle helps put the information at the point of entry without adding another wall sign.
