Designed for discreet monitoring
The Wireless Under Mattress Alertamat is placed on the bed-frame platform beneath the mattress, where it remains concealed. Alerta Medical says the mat is intended to support patient safety, comfort and dignity while considering the practical needs of users and caregivers. It activates an alarm when a user leaves the bed, allowing a caregiver to check on their safety. The design also allows users to continue receiving the full effect of pressure-relief mattresses, which the manufacturer associates with more restful sleep patterns.
Automatic reset and adaptable alerts
The alarm resets automatically when the user returns to bed. The mat can connect wirelessly to a nurse-call system through Alerta’s Wall Point Receiver, enabling centralised activation. An Alerta transmitter provides an individual delay-function option when required. When connected to a nurse-call system, the in-room volume can be deactivated, supporting silent operation within the room while still sending the alert through the wider system.
Cable-free construction
Alerta Medical describes the product as a wireless connect-and-play system with no cables. The manufacturer says this makes the mat versatile and contributes to safer use, while its antibacterial material is intended to be hygienic and easy to clean. Managing Director Ian Lindberg said the launch advances Alerta’s work on discreet monitoring and compatibility with pressure-relieving mattresses. The company also recently launched a wheelchair support solution for postural support and positioning.
