Emfit SafeFloor
In the summer of 2008 EMFIT released the 2nd generation SafeFloor system, which is a new state of the art bed and door monitoring system for fall and wandering prevention. SafeFloor is specifically designed for those who should not leave their bed or apartment unassisted, such as those suffering from dementia.
It uses Emfit’s proprietary, specially thin but durable floor sensor (L-6090SL) and a monitor device (D-1050-2G).
The Emfit floor-sensor L-6090SL is the
thinnest on the market being only 2,4 mm thick. As it is a unitary,
laminated structure it lasts for many years. If liquids are spilled over
it, they can easily be wiped away and the sensor can be kept clean with normal
household detergents. Therefore it outlasts its competition by years and
can save on repeated sensor replacement costs.
When used at a bed-side, the SafeFloor enables an early warning for fall prevention as it gives a notification the moment the person’s feet touch the sensor. This can save many critical seconds, allowing the nurse to better prevent accidental falls. If used at a door it can give the caregiver warning of possible wandering, it is possible to enable a 6 second delay for care givers to press a by-pass button.
The SafeFloor monitor has an audible
alarm with adjustable volume and dry-contact output for connection to most nurse
call systems or personal emergency phones.
Sensor is also available as only 0,4 mm
thin without the 2 mm thick PVC cover for permanent, concealable under flooring
installation.
These 58 cm wide sensors are available at lengths 90, 120 and 150 cm.
the 2nd generation monitor is now
operated with 2 pcs AA size 1,5 V batteries. An optional, medical grade AC
adapter is also available.
