Purpose
How
The standard bed pressure pad is placed underneath the mattress on the bed. A wider bed pad is also available, which goes on top of a mattress; providing increased sensitivity where users are small, light or move significantly during their sleep. When linked to a Lifeline home unit or other Tunstall telecare enabled system, the bed sensor assists carers to manage the risks associated with independent living by raising an alarm if an individual gets out of bed and does not return by a certain time. The sensor also raises an alert if the user does not go to bed, or get up, by a certain time. *
The chair occupancy sensor works in the same way, consisting of a chair pressure pad and providing a complete occupancy solution.
*Not suitable for use with air flow mattresses
Who
The Occupancy Sensor is designed for anyone who needs extra support to enable independent living, by increasing monitoring and protection in the home. It’s suitable for individuals who have recently been discharged from hospital, older people with mobility issues or anyone receiving medication.
