medical bed alarm hospital

Alarms found in medical beds in hospitals usually have a fixed receiver in a prominent position. They are activated by fixed position transmitters, for example cords and push buttons, within the user's home. These alarms sound a bell or buzzer, and/or a flashing or non-flashing lights.

Multiple transmitters can be placed at strategic positions in the house. Systems that, once activated, automatically release the door lock will enable a helper to enter the house.

Advantages: cheap to install.

Disadvantages: user must be within reach of the pull-cord or button; caregive must be within hearing/visual distance of the receiver.
