Apple Watch for health care workers ?

I want to know if there is an option to the Apple Watch for health care workers ? I can’t get one. Can’t use it on my wrist when I work. Is there a case where you can use it as a necklaces ore stick in on your clothes ??

I would like to by one but all is use solely on the wrist I can’t. To many hours it’s useless as it is.

Maybe it’s something to develop. Many people must have the same problem

The watch's special functions like ECG, heart rate, etc, are designed to only work with the watch on the top side of your wrist.


Otherwise, there are 3rd party accessories to wear it as a pendant or a pocket watch.

I’ve tried. If I had found it I would not have posted the question.

I had hoped to contact apple directly to try to get them to invent a sustainable solution. It would help a lot of people. And I know apple product work best with original stuff. If there ain’t a question then there is no problem. But I think it is. Talked to a lot of health care people with this problem.

it’s a new maket. Being able to have it on you reachable during your shift and not on your foot
