Who Can Use the TumbleCare Bed-Leaving Sensor Mat and Pager?
Whether you're a carer in a residential home or you're looking after a loved one who is prone to falls or wandering, the TumbleCare Bed-Leaving Sensor Pressure Mat and Pager set will provide you with the peace of mind that you can offer assistance and protect the vulnerable user when they need it most. As the set is designed to be easy to use straight out of the box, you don't need to have any extensive experience with bed-leaving or other care devices.
How Does the TumbleCare Kit Work?
This kit includes two parts: a bed mat that is pressure sensitive and a pager with sound and vibration alerts. The mat is placed in the patient’s bed, and should be positioned beneath them while they sleep.
If the patient gets up off of the mat in the night, this will send a signal to the pager, which will then provide an alert. By providing an alert to the carer, you can help to stop night-time wandering or bed leaving, which is good for preventing falls and other accidents. This is especially useful when dealing with confused patients, such as dementia sufferers.
How Reliable Is the TumbleCare Sensor and Pager Set?
The TumbleCare Sensor and Pager set is an incredibly reliable approach to detecting when somebody leaves a bed. The bed sensor utilises new technology that's designed to reduce false alarms, only detecting when the user rises from the edge of the bed. This way, if your patient or loved one tends to toss and turn a lot while in bed, it's less likely to emit a false alarm when compared to similar products.
How Does the Pager Provide An Alert?
You can set the pager to alert you with an audible tone and vibration, or just by vibration only. While the adjustable volume of the audio alert is ideal for busy environments during the daytime, the ability to set the pager to vibration-only mode means that you can patrol a residential home at night without risking waking up other patients with a loud alert.
If you are caring for numerous individuals, you can monitor up to three separate bed sensors (sold separately) with this one pager. Each one can be assigned a specific LED indicator, making it easier for you to look after multiple residents at any one time.
How are the TumbleCare Cordless Pressure Mat and Pager Powered?
The TumbleCare pager requires 2 AA batteries, which are supplied with this purchase.
How Easy to Clean Is the Sensor Mat?
The TumbleCare Sensor Mat is easy to wipe clean, allowing you maintain good hygiene practices in between bedding changes. It is also designed to be incontinence resistant, protecting the mat while helping to keep it clean.
