Short Description
A range of battery powered stand up alarms that can be used to alert a carer that a person is getting out of a chair or out of bed. Floor, chair and bed models are available. Some models connect to a Nurse Call system.
Models
Stand- up Chair Alarm 444C:
A battery powered chair pad that sets off an alarm when the person stands up or is about to stand.
The alarm noise is near the patient, and will switch off when she/he sits down again. It can therefore act as a reminder to the patient not to stand.
Stand-up Bed Alarm 444B:
A battery powered bed alarm that activates when the patient sits up in bed or when they get out of bed - depending on the positioning of the pad on the bed. The alarm itself can be either placed in the room with the patient or in the corridor outside. In the former instance, the noise may remind the patient not to stand. This pad can sometimes be positioned under the mattress.
Stand-up Floor "Nurse Call" Alarm 444FNC:
A slip-resistant, waterproof mat that is placed on the floor beside the bed, closest to the door or toilet.
The Nurse Call system is activated when the patient stands on the mat. This is powered by the facility's Nurse Call System and the alarm sounds at the Nurse's station, rather than in the bedroom.
A double adaptor is included with this device, so that the normal Nurse Call push button can be used with the alarm.
Stand-up Bed "Nurse Call" Alarm 444BNC:
This pad is placed on the bed so that the patient is sleeping on it and will activate the Nurse Call system once the user moves off the pad. It is powered by the facility's Nurse Call System and mains power.
A double adaptor is included with this device, so that the normal Nurse Call push button can be used with the alarm.
This pad can sometimes be positioned under the mattress.
