On the back of the arm you put it over the sensor. The thing is you take the tegaderm and center it on the sensor, hold it with one hand and peel half the tape off and put it on; then do the other half. It is tricky but it can be done. The more you practice, the smoother it gets.

Hi everyone.
Okay, I want to know how you keep a Tegaderm patch smooth on the back of your arm. I've used them on my belly and other places I can easily reach. But it takes me two hands to hold it. Omnipod has these patches called pod pals that are kind of like the Dexcom overlays, but not as well done. There are so many little pieces to peel off and the place where the hold is is such an exact tight fit that I gave up trying to use them. Again, back of my arm? Not a chance!
Just curious. Thanks so much.
Veronica
