Description of the Micro-Tech ® Informer-
Mate ™ Series Monitoring Systems
The Micro-Tech ® Informer-Mate ™ system is designed to help reduce the risk
of falls by alerting caregivers when a resident is leaving a bed, chair, or
wheelchair. Mount the monitor on the bed, chair or wheelchair using one
of the Micro-Tech
® mounting brackets according to the included
instructions. Place a Micro-Tech ® pressure pad on the bed, chair or
wheelchair according to the instructions included with the pad and attach
the cord to the monitor. When a resident moves from the pad, an alarm
sounds, alerting you of a potential fall risk.
Monitor Design
The Micro-Tech ® Informer-Mate ™ series incorporates several important
features, allowing you to focus on resident care and safety while
maintaining protocols. The monitors feature a dual button reset feature
which helps discourage resident tampering. Multiple alarm notification
options are available, allowing you to customize alert notification for each
resident, each wing, or any other configuration you desire. Lights have
been added to help you identify the monitor when in alarm condition in a
crowded or dark room. To help protect the monitor, an integrated cushion
protector and pad strain relief system have been added to protect the
monitor and pad from accidental damage due to dropping or wheelchair
entanglement.
Alert Notifications
The Micro-Tech ® Informer-Mate ™ series can be set up in multiple alarm
configurations to allow you to customize the monitor to your specific
resident and staff needs. The monitors feature Hi/Low volume control, 0 or
2-second alarm delay to help prevent false alarms from resident movement,
and lights to alert staff to an alarm condition. Additionally, the Informer-
Mate
™ Deluxe monitor offers multiple alarm notification tones and a nurse
call jack for nurse station notification.
Multiple Pad Options to Fit your Specific Needs
Micro-Tech offers multiple pad options to allow you to customize each
system to your specific patient needs. Pads are available for beds, chairs,
and wheelchairs in a variety of sizes and time-length options.
Before installing this system, please read and follow these instructions carefully.
Failure to do so could result in injury or death to a person in your care. No
device is a substitute for proper nursing care.
