Pressure Mats
For the elderly and more vulnerable, the risk of accidents or falls is greatly increased at certain times, for example when getting out of bed during the hours of darkness. A pressure sensing pad located adjacent to the bed can detect when a person gets out of bed and does not return within a certain time. An emergency alarm is autmatically raised if the individual does not return to bed . The device can be isolated via a simple keyswitch if alarm monitoring is not required at any time. Time periods are fully programmable allowing the best settings to be achieved for each individual.
