Areas of application and function
2.2
The CareMat was primarily designed for use in retirement and nursing
homes, hospitals and psychiatric wards as well as for sheltered residential
accommodation. The necessary care and supervision of patients with dementia
and of those who are at risk of falling represents a significant increase in care
expenditure for care practitioners. The CareMat is the ideal support: risks of
falling and the dangers which arise from wandering or loss of orientation can
be significantly reduced.
The CareMat as a pressure-sensitive sensing device is laid directly in front
of the care bed or the door to the room. As soon as the person leaves the
bed and steps onto the CareMat, this switches on and sends out an alarm
signal to the call system via the radio receiver. The wireless signalling
system reduces the risk of falling caused by wiring on the floor.
