Description

WHAT IS THIS PRODUCT?

These products are accessories to the Bed Side Helper (sold separately), which is a product used to help people hold onto something when getting in and out of bed. The Alarm Pad can be added to the Bed Side Helper to alert the Carer and the Patient that they are leaning against the Helper, or if they knock it in the event of a seizure. Another use is for Patients to tell a Carer that they need assistance if they are not able to operate a nurse call pager.

There are two options with regard to the Alarm alerting Carers:

  • Alarm Box – An Alarm Box which makes a sound. The Alarm Box has variable volumes.
  • Nurse Call Plug – This plugs into the nurse call system and sets off the Carers’ pagers. The Nurse Call version plugs into the nurse call system and comes with a double adapter. This allows for a normal nurse call button to still be used in conjunction with the alarm.

Both options come with a 5m / 16ft cable. Also available is a 10m / 33ft Extension Cord. These 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.

If there are two Bed Side Helpers being used together on one side of the bed, or on opposite sides, then two Alarm Pads can be joined together using a Y-Connector so that they can plug into a single Alarm Box or Nurse Call Plug. More Alarm Pads can be connected as required by using multiple Y-Connectors plugged in to each other.

WHO IS THIS PRODUCT SUITABLE FOR?

This accessory products is suitable for people who use the Pelican Bed Side Helper.

BRIEF INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Remove the Cover from the Bed Side Helper. Slide the Alarm Pad into the Cover, making sure the Hook Tape on the Alarm Pad is facing the correct way up to attach to the Loop Tape. Once the Alarm Pad is in position inside the Cover, ensure that it is completely flat and that none of the corners are folded over. Press the Hook & Loop Tape together to fix the Alarm Pad in place, then slide the Cover back onto the Bed Side Helper.

Patients may still get out of bed without sounding the Alarm. If getting out of bed is a problem, we suggest using a Stand Up Floor Alarm or Stand Up Floor Lino Alarm.

WHAT IS THIS PRODUCT MADE FROM?

Foam, electrical components.

Important

Consult your medical Therapist before using to ensure this product is suitable for the Patient. Pelican cannot accept responsibility if a Patient is harmed when using the Bed Side Helper.

Warranty: 12 months.

Warning: When using a double adaptor, if the Patient’s Nurse Call button is removed from the adaptor, then the automatic Nurse Call system may not alert staff. There may be occasions when the facility does not want the Patient to have a Nurse Call button as they may have dementia and be pushing the button for no reason. We understand that the Patients should always have access to a Nurse Call button, so if this is removed, we recommend documenting this in their care plan. If the Patient’s Nurse Call button is removed then the Pelican Stand Up Alarm can be plugged directly into the wall socket without using the double adaptor.
