There are a few ways to remove a nursing home label from your clothing.
The first way is to wet the label with a wet cloth then apply a commercial stripper to the wet cloth. Next, apply pressure to the cloth rubbing the label. Once the label starts to loosen up, begin peeling it away at the corner.
The next way is to put the item on an ironing board and cover it with some parchment paper. Then, take a hot iron and heat up the label in a circular motion which should loosen the adhesive on the back. Once it gets loose, use tweezers or a fingernail to peel it off.
