Pressure-Sensitive Chair and Bed Alarm with Pad Drive #13606

Pressure-Sensitive Chair and Bed Alarm with Pad – Drive Medical #13606

Safety and peace of mind are most important when caring for loved ones. The Drive Pressure-Sensitive Chair and Bed Alarm with Pad (#13606) enables caregivers to monitor patient movement discreetly and effectively. This reliable system alerts you the moment a patient rises from their bed or chair, reducing fall risk and enhancing home or healthcare facility safety.

Smart Monitoring for Added Safety

Falling typically happens when patients try to stand up or move without help. This alarm system is monitoring movement the moment the user moves off the pad. It gives an audible notification to the caregiver, allowing timely response before any accident can happen.

The pressure-sensitive design is reliable and accurate. It picks up on light movement but doesn't allow false alarms for minor shifts in position. That stability and sensitivity balance is what makes it ideal for everyday use. 

Dual Use for Bed or Chair

One of the system's strongest features is its flexibility. Drive #13606 can be used on both chairs and beds. The pad is simply slid under the patient's seat, thighs, or back. It lies flat and comfortable while still permitting accurate pressure detection.

This versatility saves time and cost. One product fits a range of needs, whether at home, in the hospital, or long-term care facility.

Instant Audible Alerts

As soon as the user leaves the pad, the alarm will sound. The clear signal alerts caregivers right away. Early notification prevents falls and harm, especially for users with limited mobility, dementia, or frailty from recovery.

The alarm volume is loud enough to be heard in another room but is not jarring or obtrusive. It is effective but unobtrusive, offering protection without stress.

Easy Setup and Use

The Pressure-Sensitive Alarm with Pad doesn't need complicated installation. Put the pad on the chair or bed, plug it into the alarm unit, and turn it on. That's it.

Caregivers love the ease of use. It's portable, lightweight, and up and running in just a few minutes. The system runs on standard batteries, so it's convenient anywhere — even where there isn't a nearby power outlet.

Proven Pressure Pad Design

Its pad is long-lasting and comfortable. The pad is thin and strong and is designed for continuous use without a reduction in sensitivity. The vinyl cover, which is soft, is skin-friendly and easy to clean.

Being a sealed pad, it is odor-resistant and moisture-resistant. It is suitable for use in both home and professional care environments.

Adjustable Settings and Options

Different situations demand different reactions. The Drive #13606 offers volume and tone control for adaptable use. You can choose the most appropriate sound level and tone for your setting.

Some caregivers like a louder alarm for noisy facilities. Others like a soft alert for home settings. The system accommodates both easily.

Lightweight and Portable

Weighing only a few ounces, the alarm unit can accompany the caregiver or be left beside the patient. The compact size makes it simple to place on a nightstand, wheelchair arm, or countertop.

When using in multiple rooms, the pad and alarm can be moved easily. Portability offers true convenience for daily care routines.

Durable Construction for Long-Term Use

Drive Medical builds products to endure. No exception is the Pressure-Sensitive Chair and Bed Alarm. The electronics are encased in a durable casing that resists drops or normal handling.

The pad is resistant to repeated weight shifts and doesn't lose sensitivity. You can count on it for dependable monitoring over time.

Ideal for Facility or Home Care

This model suits both private homes and professional care settings. Families use it to ensure loved ones don’t leave their beds at night without help. Nurses and caregivers in hospitals or senior residences rely on it for 24-hour monitoring.

Its dependable performance and ease of use make it an essential safety tool wherever patient supervision is needed.

Helps Reduce Falls and Wandering

Falls are one of the most common hazards for convalescent and elderly patients. The Drive #13606 alarm alerts caregivers to early warning before movement that could be harmful.

For patients with dementia or Alzheimer's, it also discourages wandering. The system alerts caregivers the moment a person tries to stand or get out of a bed or chair without help.

Easy Maintenance and Cleaning

It is simple to keep the system hygienic. Clean the alarm unit and pad with a mild disinfectant or damp cloth. Do not immerse the parts in water. 

Regular cleaning ensures hygiene and extends the life of the pad. The sealed design renders it impervious to spills or damage from moisture.

Cost-Effective Safety Solution

The Drive Pressure-Sensitive Alarm System provides a cost-effective way to increase safety in care. For a fraction of what electronic monitors cost, it delivers proven effectiveness. 

It is a one-time investment that provides caregivers and families with peace of mind on a daily basis. Proven, straightforward, and inexpensive — it's a solid addition to any care plan.
