The Role Badge Reel

Forty times a shift

Door, cabinet, lift, pharmacy, door again. The badge is the one thing you touch more
than your pen, and the reel is what takes the punishment. When the cord frays or the clip
lets go, you find out in the worst possible corridor.

What’s in your hand

• Retractable steel cord — pulls out roughly 60 cm and returns under its own tension.
• Swivel alligator clip — turns with you, so the reel doesn’t twist itself into your scrub top.
• Printed acrylic face — sealed, wipeable, and light enough that you stop noticing it.
• Vinyl badge strap — fits a standard ID card without punching a new hole.

Say something true

Some days that’s an anatomical heart wrapped in flowers. Some days it’s a line
about running on coffee. Both are honest. Pick the one that sounds like you on the day
you’re wearing it.

Care

Wipe the face with a damp cloth. Don’t run the cord through the wash — unclip
it before your set goes in.
