Under Pressure!
New Addition to C-Tec''s Dementia Care Range
C-TEC has added a floor pressure mat to its new and highly innovativerange of Quantec dementia care products.
Designed for use in care facilities housing patients suffering from
dementia, Alzheimers and other degenerative illnesses, the QT644
floor pressure mat is typically placed at the side of a bed and will
trigger a call if it detects foot pressure to alert staff to
wandering patients.
With its tough durable PVC finish and non-slip rubber base, the mat
trades at just £77.40 and can be connected to C-TEC’s Quantec
addressable call system via a QT637 Enuresis/general purpose
interface socket or the remote jack socket on a QT602 master call point.
Said Andy Green, C-TEC’s Marketing Manager: “C-TEC’s new dementia
care products have been designed to radically improve the quality of
life of dementia sufferers and the new pressure mat is a welcome
addition to the range. Not only does it alert staff to wandering
patients, but it can also identify changes in behaviour that may
indicate that a patient’s condition is worsening.”
The range also includes enuresis (bed wet) sensors, bed/chair exit
sensors, PIRs and LED lights, all of which can be easily interfaced
to existing Quantec systems, thus representing excellent value for
money.
Since its inception in 1981, C-TEC’s reputation as a manufacturer of
world-class life-safety equipment has soared.
The company’s fire alarm control panels, voice alarms and disability products are currently protecting thousands of people worldwide and it has recently been nominated as one of the UK’s outstanding examples of
manufacturing excellence in the Government’s prestigious ‘Made by
Britain’ initiative.
