Fall Safety

Round the clock monitoring of seniors and people living with dementia becomes quite difficult when one has to take care of other household chores as well. This is where such fall prevention packages can be instrumental in ensuring their safety. Not only do they help in keeping an eye on the seniors when you’re in another room, but they will immediately alert you if they happen to get up from their bed and are in need of assistance. Our range of chair, bed, and door alarms for elderly as well as monitor systems for patients living with dementia are exceptional devices that are designed to make their lives as well as that of caregivers easier and safer. 

These systems are extremely helpful for those who prefer to age in place. Based on their requirements and health conditions, a combination of devices can be installed around the home to ensure that no call for assistance is left unheeded. Those who can call caregivers by themselves when they require assistance can do so by opting for pull string senior medical alert systems and call buttons. 

In addition, there are two-way video monitors for the elderly too that makes caregiving easy and convenient. These are equipped with sound and motion sensors that get activated whenever the senior gets up from the bed or calls out for your help. You can monitor their activity while going about your other responsibilities in another room. More importantly, these full-motion video systems can be configured to support four cameras at once and offer night viewing modes as well. 

Wandering and falls can happen, no matter how careful you might be, especially if the patients are unable to take care of themselves. Latching the door to prevent wandering is also not recommended as it poses a significant fire hazard. Instead, installing fall alarms for the elderly that have wireless and motion-sensing features will help to keep them secure 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, without posing additional safety risks. Motion-sensing floor mats and bed mats are incontinence proof and can send signals to central monitors that are up to 300 feet away and caregiver pagers that sound an alarm or vibrate as long as the caregiver is within 150 feet. An added benefit of such a device is that it sounds an alarm away from the patient, meaning that he or she won’t be disturbed.
