ABOUT THIS PRODUCT The Bed Side Wedge Alarm Pad can be added to our Bed Side Wedges or Bed Side Wedge – One Side to alert carers when a patient presses down on a Wedge while getting out of bed, or when they lean against a Wedge. The Alarm Pad is available with an Alarm Box which sounds inside the patient’s room. Alternatively, a 10m / 33ft Extension Cord can be used to take the Alarm Box to another room. For facilities with a Nurse Call Paging System, the Alarm Pad is available with a Nurse Call Plug to sound an alert through the system. Usually, only one Alarm Pad is needed in a Wedge near the patient’s shoulders on the side of the bed they normally get out of. Two Bed Side Wedge Alarm Pads can be joined together using a Y-Connector, which can be plugged into a single Alarm Box or Nurse Call Socket. For people who want to use more than one Alarm Pad, the Alarm Pad & Y-Connector option is available in the drop-down menu. This can be added to an Alarm Pad with Alarm Box or Alarm Pad with Nurse Call Plug. WHO SHOULD USE THIS PRODUCT? Suitable for alerting staff or carers if a patient is trying to get out of bed. HOW TO USE THIS PRODUCT The Alarm Pad should be installed between the outer sleeve and the Wedge cushion. We recommend positioning the Alarm Pad on the side of the Wedge that faces toward the patient, or on the outside. The Alarm will not sound if the patient gets out of bed and does not touch the Wedge. If getting out of bed is a problem, we suggest using a Stand-Up Floor Alarm. PRODUCT MATERIALS Wipeable Material, Foam, Various Electrical Components.
