 Stanley Healthcare Solutions, a division of The Stanley Works platform, announces the launch of RoamAlert 1.5, an update to its RoamAlert resident safety system, first launched in 1984.
RoamAlert 1.5 expands the range of applications for real-time protection of residents in long-term care facilities. In addition to wander prevention, the RoamAlert system now offers resident locating, emergency call and monitoring of mobile equipment.
This new functionality is enabled by a combination of the RoamAlert 1.5 software and new hardware components for the system. Existing RoamAlert installations can also be upgraded to receive these new features.
The RoamAlert system also helps counter the many general risks facing residents from falls to a medical emergency and violence. A small wireless pendant tag enables a resident to call for help from anywhere in the facility. The RoamAlert system generates an alarm in the RoamAlert software identifying the resident, the time and the exact location.
RoamAlert 1.5 also introduces the new InterTag, which allows facilities to monitor mobile equipment that cannot be hardwired, such as incontinence sensors, ventilators and fall monitors. The InterTag sends a signal to the RoamAlert system whenever the device goes into alarm. Information is displayed in the RoamAlert software, including the device and location, so that staff can respond quickly and with complete knowledge of the situation.
