Resident monitoring system.(PRODUCT spotlight)

Available from RF Technologies, Care 3[TM] streamlines risk reduction systems by bringing together fall management, incontinence detection, and pressure ulcer protection in a single monitoring system. A pressure sensor pad continuously monitors whether a person is properly positioned in his or her bed or chair; if pressure is removed from the pad, Care 3 automatically generates audio and visual alerts. A disposable fluid-sensing pad detects incontinence, and the system signals when it is time to reposition a resident.

Alerts for all three functions are communicated to a single wireless monitoring device with an automatic reset feature. Care 3--part of the Sensatec line--can be integrated with RF Technologies' wireless call system or pagers, or a facility's existing nurse call system.
