Using Sensormat Pads
19
Commode
Ensure the commode is clean and dry. Place the adhesive towards the seat ring,
positioning it between the seat and the commode frame.
Test the Commode Sensormat pad before each use. See “Testing the
Sensormat Pads” on page 20.
Lap Alarms
For installation instructions, see the installation guide. A Lap Alarm
Extender (Part# 0707-946 or 75021) may also be purchased separately.
Test the Lap Alarm before each use. See “Testing the Sensormat
Pads” on page 20.
Floor Sensormat Pad
Place the pad on the floor beside the bed or chair, taking care to position it such
that the patient/resident makes contact when exiting the bed or chair. Unlike
the chair or bed pads, the floor pad alarms when pressure is applied, instead of
when the pressure is removed from the pad.
Test the Floor Pad before each use. See “Testing the Sensormat Pads”
on page 20.
Note: Floor Pads always follow Latching behavior. See “Latching and
Non-Latching” on page 16.
