Do not fill this in!A fall detector device is a small wearable device that can sense when a person has fallen and alerts emergency responders. It’s a great option for seniors who are prone to falls and want extra protection in the home or while traveling.<br /><br /> [https://personalmedicalalarms.com.au/ Medical Alarms AU] How it works<br /><br />Many fall detection devices use a combination of motion-sensing sensors, such as accelerometers, to detect the speed, angle, distance, and impact of a fall. The sensors measure these metrics and send them to a monitoring center that determines if emergency medical help is needed.<br /><br />Some devices use GPS to pinpoint a location and send it to the monitoring center for dispatch. Others are primarily meant to be worn in the home and don’t have GPS capabilities.<br /><br />False alarm issues<br /><br />One of the biggest concerns with fall detection is that it can trigger false alarms. This happens when the user moves their body and doesn’t realize they are triggering the system. It’s important to know how to cancel a false alarm so you can let the operator know that you didn’t have a fall and don’t need emergency help.<br /><br />To avoid false alarms, make sure your fall detection device is worn around the neck rather than on a wrist or belt. Also, tighten the lanyard so it doesn’t swing out when you bend or move. In addition, keep in mind that the more motion you have to take to trigger a fall, the higher the chances of a false alarm.
