is it okay to wear my Medical alert Bracelets with the black lettering wet in the shower and doing the dishes

My son has always taken the bracelet off when showering. I have no idea how it would hold up. I imagine it would be ok. If you have a paper inside, as he does, I would have it protected with packing tape on it (sort of like its laminated with the packing tape and then trimmed down to fit).

I don't wear my bracelet in the shower, just as I don't wear my watch. I do have it on when I do dishes but my entire hand up to and including my wrist is not submersed in water. The bracelet itself can withstand water, however, I'm not sure that constant exposure to water would beb good for the black area.

I would not - the paper inside will get wet. That is why I had to buy this one as a replacement for my mother - she got it wet somehow.

This product is not water tight. Since it opens to hold your medical instructions, you would risk getting them wet if you wear it in the shower or while doing dishes.

Yes. You can take a shower, go swimming, etc. They stick well. The only issue I've had is forgetting to take one off and it got really stuck. They are a lot like a bandaid, except bigger.

Yes I wear mine all the time during workouts doing the dishes. I also had one that broke apart at the bump that is on it but I think it was because I took it off a lot. This one I leave on

On my bracelet I had them put "see medical card". That way I could keep current. Otherwise I would think you'd need a new one.

This is a special set so you have to take special care of them. You should hand wash them and and dry them so that the plated gold does not wear.

Definitely! I make sure to rinse really well and use washcloths that are light color. Be careful of dripping on clothes

The watch is waterproof, wearing in the shower would be fine, however I would not recommend it. The watch is metal and solidly built, the band is also metal, but the piece connecting the band to the watch is cheap plastic and was broken within a couple of weeks. Unless they have improved that I would steer clear of it.

Paul, I'm not sure about "waterproof" - I do want to alert you that the bracelet version we got has a REALLY CHEAP Clasp. It broke after my wife Terry wore it for about a day and half. We were (are) very disappointed as it turned out. Just wanted to give you a "heads up", and hope it's helpful. Dan Murphy

Hello Tarek, with anything that's electronic, just as your cell phone, it's to be very careful around water, yet with the Gear, you can wash your hands. Yet do not get Gear wet, remember it's just like your cell phone, just cooler! Enjoy it if you already have it, if not yet, when you do!

No, they are a knit material and water will penetrate. You shouldn't have wet hands, either.

my son has washed his hands with it on with no issues, I wouldn't swim with it, but a little water on it doesn't seem to be an issue

I don't think so. The manufacturer says to not panic if you shower with it, but recommends taking it off before showering. I believe there are other brands of monitors that do well I the water...

I am not a professional, but in my opinion I don't see why not. When your done I would make sure to wash both hands thoroughly.

They are washable so the water won't change them. You may want to adjust them once they're wet just in case they loosen once they're wet. My mistake was taking them off to shower, I never should've done that because I got sick as soon as I was in the shower!!!!

Yes, You can absolutely wash it in some sudsy water in the sink to get the sweat out of it. If you wear it in the rain, your phone is protected from getting wet unless you were in a typhoon or something.

Asfar as I know it's waterproof. I wear mine 24/7 since I had it, and nothing has happen to it yet. I wear it working out , swim, and shower.As time goes buy the halogram will probably pop off. Nothing last forever!

Probably NOT!!! It has a cloth covering over a rigid foam insert. My guess is that once it got wet, it would create other unwanted health problems. You might want to talk with the patient's doctor & discuss how they are supposed to shower. After my wreck I was supposed to wear it 2/47 but was allowed to remove for my shower. If they really can't take it off to shower then they probably should be receiving sponge baths. So, talk to the doc about the best neck brace for the person & then go from there.
