Apple Watch nurse fob strap (Pink)

An Apple Watch fob strap is a special strap designed for nurses to wear during their work. Because nurses can't wear items around their wrists, such as an Apple Watch, this 'strap' is a fob that you can pin to your clothing. Thanks to the Apple Watch nurse fob you can still keep track of your activities while working, without wearing a strap around your wrist.

Can you use an Apple Watch as a nurse?

Using an Apple Watch as a nurse under normal circumstances is not allowed. Because of hygienic reasons, it's not allowed to wear anything on your wrists. It's therefore only possible to wear an Apple Watch using an Apple Watch fob strap. Tracking options will be more limited because of this, since the Apple Watch does not make direct contact with your skin.

Can NHS nurses wear Apple Watch?

Wearing any sort of wrist watch is not permitted for clinical staff in healthcare.

Picking a new strap for your Apple Watch might look confusing, but rest assured. Apple has made it quite easy to figure out what kind of strap you need.

Whether you've got a Series 1 or Series 9, an Apple Watch SE or an Apple Watch Ultra, the connector will fit seemlessly. 

Next, there's usually two different sizes. This refers to the case size of your Apple Watch. They always come in a small and a big case size, ranging from 38mm to 45mm or even 49mm in case of the Apple Watch Ultra. How do you find out your size? Simple! Just turn around your Apple Watch so the back is facing you. The size should be noted on the back in millimetres. Now you can find the right size Apple Watch strap or nurse fob for your Apple Watch.
