Frequently asked questions
Does this pad work with most alarm monitors?
Yes, the McKesson Sensor Pad is designed for universal compatibility with standard fall prevention bed alarm monitors used in both clinical and home care settings.
Can this be used if the patient has incontinence?
Absolutely. The pad is constructed with a water-resistant vinyl cover, making it durable and easy to clean, providing essential protection against moisture in incontinence-related scenarios.
How long can I use each sensor pad?
Each pad is designed for single-patient use with a reliable functional lifespan of up to 45 days, ensuring consistent performance throughout the service cycle.
Where is the best place to position the pad?
For optimal pressure detection, the pad should be placed under the resident’s hips or shoulders. This ensures the most accurate trigger when the patient attempts to exit the bed.
Can I fold the pad for easier storage?
No, do not fold the pad. Folding can damage the internal silver membrane technology, which is essential for accurate weight sensing and reliable performance.
Does this replace the need for regular observation?
No. While the sensor is an effective aid for caregiver monitoring, it should be used in conjunction with regular observation and professional judgment and is not a substitute for active care.
Is the setup process difficult?
Not at all. The installation is minimal and straightforward: simply place the pad in the required position and plug the connector into your compatible fall prevention monitor.
Are there instructions printed on the pad?
Yes, for convenience and safety, the pad features comprehensive setup and maintenance instructions printed directly on the surface, ensuring caregivers have necessary guidance readily available.
Is the material safe for sensitive patients?
The pad is designed with a durable, water-resistant vinyl cover that prioritizes patient safety by minimizing common risks, such as tripping, entanglement, and choking hazards.
What is the primary technology behind the sensing?
The pad utilizes advanced silver membrane technology, which is engineered to provide high reliability and consistent performance every time weight is removed from the pad.
