Fall Prevention

product description

We offer wearable fall alarm transmitters that automatically send "Fall Alarm" notification to staff if a patient falls down anywhere within the range of the wireless repeater network and a help request when the button is pressed for assistance. We also offer bed exit monitors that plug directly into the Vision Link or MicroVision bedside patient station for automatic notification to the nursing station and staff pagers when a patient leaves their bed. The system displays the event as a "Bed Exit" with the patient's name, room number and any other desired information. This information is silently sent to staff pocket pagers or other notification devices so the appropriate caregiver can respond.

Pendant Transmitter - A personal pendant transmitter can automatically send the wearer's name and location to staff if the resident falls down or leaves a monitored area. The resident can also press the button anytime they need assistance.

The alarm information is then wirelessly transmitted to the console and caregiver.
