Description

WHAT IS THIS PRODUCT?

The Stand Up Bed Alarm is placed on top of the mattress underneath the bottom bed sheets. It is triggered when the person gets out of bed. It is made with a sewn, wipeable vinyl cover. There are two ties to secure it in place around the mattress. Normally you want to place it so the hips and shoulders are on the alarm pad. This is so there is enough weight going through the pad as someone turns, and shifts weight between the hips and shoulders. There is a built-in delay of about 1/2 second. This is so that if someone is just changing position there should not be any false alarms. Some people under 40kg / 90lbs may not be heavy enough for this product to work. Spare internal Contact Sheets are available.

There are two options with regard to the Alarm alerting Carers:

Alarm Box – An Alarm Box which makes a sound
Nurse Call Plug – This plugs into the nurse call system and sets off the Carers’ pagers

The Alarm Box has variable volumes. The Nurse Call version plugs into the nurse call system and comes with a double adapter. This allows for a normal nurse call button to still be used in conjunction with the alarm. Both options come with a 16′ cable.

Also available is a 10m / 32′ Extension Cord. Extension cords can be linked together so that the alarm box can be placed virtually anywhere. Most facilities keep the alarm box in the corridor, but some have wired it through the ceiling, across other rooms to the nurses’ station.

Inside the mat are the Contact Sheets, which is the part which triggers the alarm. Over time, the Contact Sheets can wear down and will need to be replaced. We supply spare internal Contact Sheets, which means you no not need to purchase a brand new product when they wear out.

We recommend buying spare Contact Sheets with your order. Click here to view the video showing how to change the Stand Up Floor Alarm Contact Sheets.

WHO IS THIS PRODUCT SUITABLE FOR?

The Stand Up Bed Alarm is suitable for someone who is under care and Carers or nurses need to know when they are moving off the bed.

BRIEF INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Place the mat on the mattress, so that the persons hips and shoulders will be on it. We recommend placing under any incontinence sheets or pads, but make sure this extra padding still allows the alarm to be triggered. Sometimes a lot of padding distributes the person’s weight too much, and the alarm may not sound when they get out of bed. Attach the ties under the mattress.

WHAT IS THIS PRODUCT MADE FROM?

Wipeable Material, Foam, Various Electrical Components.

WARNING

Patient Stand Up Alarms can be a very helpful way of monitoring a Patient without physical or chemical restraining. They are normally used with people who stand up from a chair or get out of bed and could fall over.

Sometimes the Patient may be able to walk but due to dementia and mobility issues, they may put themselves or others in danger.

Important

Warranty: 12 months. All Contact Sheets can be easily replaced if necessary.

Warning: When using a double adaptor, if the Patient’s Nurse Call button is removed from the adaptor, then the automatic Nurse Call system may not alert staff. There may be occasions when the facility does not want the Patient to have a Nurse Call button as they may have dementia and be pushing the button for no reason. We understand that the Patients should always have access to a Nurse Call button, so if this is removed, we recommend documenting this in their care plan. If the Patient’s Nurse Call button is removed then the Pelican Stand Up Alarm can be plugged directly into the wall socket without using the double adaptor.

Warning: Choking Hazard. The Alarm Box and Nurse Call plug includes a small component as part of the design. This product may not be suitable for an individual who has a tendency to place inedible objects in their mouth.
