Q What does it do?
INVISA-BEAM monitors use invisible beams to monitor the bed/chair of a resident/patient at risk of fall.. The patient is not disturbed by these beams and not restricted by them. If the patient starts to move from the bed or chair, the invisible beam is broken and the alarm triggered.
