Daily Transmitter Testing
Each day, the aide responsible for the care of the residents utilizing the Secure Care System must ensure that the ankle
or wrist transmitter is in place.
This must be done at each shift change.
Documentation of this check should be made by the nurse's aide. This should be recorded on the aide's daily checklist
for the particular resident.
Each transmitter should be tested daily to ensure the transmitter is working properly. The Expiration date imprinted
transmitters should be checked for expiration at this time. A tester is available to purchase for fast, easy testing of all
transmitters.
A documented test of each ankle or wrist transmitter at the facility must be made each day.
This testing should also include those transmitters not currently in use. The procedure involves using the Transmitter
Tester and/or the Exit Panel on the wall by the exit, and documenting the performance of the transmitter.
Section 11 of this User Guide is a daily transmitter testing log which you may find useful.
Cleaning the Transmitter
Secure Care recommends transmitters are cleaned after each use. To properly clean the transmitter use lint free IPA
(Isopropyl Alcohol) wipes. With the transmitter removed from the resident, wipe the transmitter on all sides with the
IPA wipe. When cleaning is finished store the transmitter in a transmitter containment box.
Information can be written on the strap using a permanent marker.
Transmitters returned to Secure Care Products without prior approval may result in additional charges to your account.
If you have any questions, please call your Distributor/Installer first, then if necessary call Secure Care Products Service
Department at 1-800-451-7917 or email [e-mail]
Using the Transmitter
Figure 1 - Example of a Transmitter ID
NOTE: New Tags need to be added to the Tag list before they will be displayed in the
Tag ID drop down menu.
1. Place the band through the slot in the bottom of the Tag feeding it through until it comes out the other side
of the Tag. The Tag should be properly fitted to the resident’s ankle or wrist with regard to comfort
(two fingertips should fit between the band and the resident’s ankle or wrist).
