Fall Prevention Alarm
For Seniors
Are you worried about falls? Take action before the fall happens. The Fall Prevention Alarm
instantly alerts the caregiver of any attempt to get up from a chair or
wheelchair.
This high-quality fall prevention alarm is different from others because,
instead of relying on a pin being pulled out of its socket to set off the alarm,
it uses a magnetic contact. The cord is adjustable for either wheelchair or bed
mounting (18”-32”). The custom stainless steel clip is designed to mount to
chair frame, chair back, bed rail or headboard.
Why is a magnetic Fall Prevention Alarm important? Because pin inserts must
be pulled in a single, specific direction (usually down) to set off the alarm. A
tug coming from the wrong way will just pull the alligator clip (on the end of
the string) off the patient's clothing, without setting off the alarm. A
magnetic contact will respond to a tug in any direction.
