Specialty Care Sensor - Bed Occupancy Sensor

Tunstall’s bed occupancy sensor detects if the bed is not occupied during a preset time. The sensor can be tailored to each individual allowing them to get up through the night, but will activate an alarm call if they do not return within a certain time frame.

The bed occupancy sensor will also detect if someone has not gone to bed at night, or got out of bed in the morning, activating an alarm call to the 24 hour response centre.

The sensor can also be interfaced with X-10 controllers to trigger lights to come on and go off to reduce the likely hood of tripping or falling during the night.

Specialty Care Sensor - Fall Detector

Tunstall’s fall detector monitors when a client has fallen. Using an intelligent two stage detection process, the fall detector is able to detect genuine falls. When an impact is sensed, the fall detector wakes up from its idle state. A second sensor then examines the client’s is in a lying position before the process continues.

If this state is unchanged after 15 seconds, the device registers an emergency and sends a radio alarm signal to the home unit, which then initiates a call to the response centre.

Specialty Care Sensor - Pressure Mat

Tunstall’s pressure mat monitors movement in specific areas, such as next to the bed or by the bathroom. If the sensor has not been activated (walked upon) within a set period of time an alert is sent through to the 24 hour response centre.

Conversely an alert can be sent through to the response centre or carer any time it is walked upon. This may be beneficial when used for clients who are prone to wondering.
