Imagine an air alternating therapy mattress that can sense and record even the smallest patient movement - not only as it happens but also as an historical record of patient movement - showing any baseline changes.
Aged Care facilities in NSW and Victoria are now deploying this technology throughout their sites. Clinicians at these facilities can now select a mattress on their office PCs, Laptops or mobile devices and instantly view data on how each patient is receiving support therapy and how they are responding.
A Director of Nursing for example can determine the following by using these TheraCloud WiFi Mattresses
- When staff are transferring a high risk resident on or off the bed
- If any micromovements are occurring which can point to the level of risk.
- Are any floor staff adjusting the pressure settings through the night or during transfers
- Whether a resident is getting in or out of bed by themselves
We have included an example of the control screen which allows a clinician not only to observe sensor readouts in real or historical time but also directly control and adjust the mattress to suit each patient.
