As a member of staff at a care home, your responsibilities are vast, with one of the most crucial being the organisation of residents' personal belongings. Misplacing items can lead to confusion and added costs. At My Nametags, the market leader in personalised care home labels for residents, we provide high-quality nursing home labels designed to help you easily identify belongings. This allows staff to spend less time sorting through items and more time focusing on what truly matters to your residents.

Labelling personal items like mobility aids, toiletries, medications, etc. allows for easier tracking of resident belongings.
Labels help address residents' individual requirements, such as allergies or other care needs.
Our labels give residents a sense of ownership, dignity, and connection to their belongings.
With our labels, you can expedite the communal washing process with efficient sorting methods.
Traditional option for many parents and grandparents.

Time Consuming: Takes time to fix them to garments.

Very Efficient: Labels can be ironed on in seconds.
10-Year Guarantee: Stays on for 10 years.

Durable: Best for occasional washing, but iron-ons are better for frequent washing.
Easy to Identify: Labels for care homes are designed to stand out and make belongings easily identifiable.
Traditionally, care homes would only label clothing, but you can label so much more - personal items, medical supplies, medication boxes, drawers, and storage spaces - for easy identification. Using care home labels for clothing makes a big practical difference: clear, durable labels reduce laundry mix-ups, speed up sorting, make it easier for staff to return garments to the right person, and help residents recognise their own belongings quickly. Labelled clothing also preserves dignity and independence - residents feel more in control when their items are clearly marked - while labelled medical supplies and storage help maintain organisation, reduce confusion, and lower the risk of misplaced or lost items across the home.

Remove the iron-on labels from the transparent backing sheet and place the clothing label on the desired place of the garment.
Place the silicone paper over the label and heat the iron (with the steam setting turned off) to the maximum temperature the garment is able to sustain.
Hold the iron in place for 8-15 seconds. After this, check if the label has completely stuck; if it has not, hold the iron for a few more seconds.
Once the previous steps are complete, avoid washing the garment with the newly applied iron-on label for at least 24 hours.
Silicone paper and instructions on how to apply our iron-on labels are included with every set ordered. My Nametags iron-on labels are 100% waterproof and can be used in both washing machines and dryers.
Our commitment to quality care makes us a trusted choice for staff.
Next day delivery on 10 packs of individual named labels for 10 residents, labels are clearly printed & easy to read, really easy to navigate website and superb price.

Our care home has been using My nametags for over a year, and we couldn’t be happier with the quality and service. The nametags are durable, easy to read, and help our staff maintain the resident's clothes in a professional way. The customer service is outstanding, always responsive and helpful. We highly recommend them to other care homes.

Sew-on labels should be applied to clothing, visible to anyone who might find the item of clothing, such as in the collar or the waistband. However, applying sew-ons is a time-consuming process and these labels are liable to wear or come unstitched. This is why sticker and iron-on labels have been created. They can be applied in seconds, and stay on.
Our stickers labels can be applied to shoes but not our iron-ons.
1. Remove label from the transparent backing sheet.
2. Place nametag on garment. Cover with the silicone paper provided.
3. Heat iron to maximum temperature for the garment. Turn off the steam function. Press firmly on top of silicone paper for 8 - 15 seconds. For synthetics, reduce the heat and extend ironing time.
4. Remove silicone paper and allow the garment to cool.
