WHAT IS THIS PRODUCT?
The Stand Up Chair Alarm alerts Carers when someone stands up from a wheelchair or chair. The alarm noise is near the patient and this may help the patient to remember not to stand up, as the noise will stop if they sit down again.
The Stand Up Chair Alarm comes with a soft velour cover on the top, and a non-slip rubber material underneath. There is a slight delay built into this alarm, so that if weight is temporarily taken off the pad, the alarm will not sound. This is to allow people to slightly change their seating position. The delay is around one second.
Inside the mat is 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 for if they wear out, which means you no not need to purchase an brand new product. We recommend buying spare Contact Sheets with your order. The spare parts available for this product are:

The Sounding Alarm Box has variable volumes and comes with a 3.3′ cable. Also available is a 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.
The Nurse Call version plugs into the nurse call system and comes with a double adapter. This allows a normal nurse call button to still be used in conjunction with the alarm. Note: The Nurse Call version of this product comes with and Australian 240V plug.

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.
