Based on the feedback and need for additional safety equipment, Cooper University Health Care has purchased enough chair alarms to accommodate each patient in need.<\/p>\n

Cooper\u2019s Maintenance Department will be systematically installing a dedicated, wall-mounted Posey chair alarm on each headwall of our patients\u2019 rooms.<\/p>\n

Important information:
\n\u2022 Chair alarms slide on and off the wall mount. The on\/off switch is still in back and each has four AA batteries.
\n\u2022 The process to obtain chair alarm pads will remain same. Pads will transition from green to white.
\n\u2022 All chair alarm pads are single patient use \u2013 pads are disposed of after discharge.
\n\u2022 Staff should continue to follow the same cleaning process, but the alarm will stay on the wall mount in the room \u2013 not with EVS.<\/p>\n

Extra chair alarms with brackets will be installed on units as additional supply for portable use as needed.<\/p>\n

Statistics:
\n2019 = 220 falls
\n2020 year-to-date falls = 141<\/p>\n

We have increased our \u201cassisted falls\u201d by use of bed alarms and chair alarms from 28 in 2019 to 37 in 2020.<\/p>\n
