Have you seen one of these?

I don't know what they are called but walmart carries them in their office supply section.

Like a sleeve to put the badge in? Any office supply store will carry them.

I can tell you from my non-nursing job experience that you can't just buy one though you have to buy a pack of like 20 I believe. I know thats like it is where I work.

Also check the uniform stores. Several where I live carry those.

Try the cop shops; those stores usually have a variety of name or badge holders. Failing that, try a full catalog police ems fire or military service supplier like Galls, Inc:

They have a huge site and it may take some time for you to locate an item, but they (or one of their affiliates) have just about everything that any public service worker needs.

Good luck

Thanks! I found what I was looking for. The Galls site didn't have it but prompted me to look for other sites that have service award ID holders, so now I know what they are called. http://awardshere.com/products/holder_clips.html
