Method Of Use

* Place the alarm on the floor beside the resident's bed. The alarm is best placed on the side most regularly used to exit the bed - either the patient's strongest / most comfortable side or the side closest to the bathroom and door.
* Check that the edge of the slip resistant mat is under the bed. This will eliminate the risk of tripping on the edge of the mat and will ensure good contact when the resident steps onto the mat. Ideally, they will stand close to the centre of the mat upon standing.
* Plug the cord into the Nurse Call system and double check the mat is working by standing on the mat.

Standards

Standards
Some assistive technology needs to meet Australian or other standards. Standards may relate to materials, manufacturing and installation. Products that meet Australian or international standards will have written certification. To find out if a product meets Australian Standards ask the supplier to show you the certificate. For more information about standards also see

TGA
Many of the items on the Assistive Technology Australia website are categorised as a Medical Device. Medical devices that are approved for use in Australia have been entered into a national database called the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG), which is maintained by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). You can ask the supplier for the ARTG number for the device you wish to purchase and search the ARTG for the entry. To access information on the ARTG visit www.tga.gov.au

When buying a medical device it is advisable to only choose a medical device that is recommended by a healthcare professional and has been included on the ARTG.
