Which would you choose?
OPTION 1:This is a flood detector:
Traditionally, it is placed on the floor and tells you when there isenough water on the floor to set it off in a small kitchen thiscould be approx 700 litres of water
It talks to a panel which responds directly or can forward info to a call centre, off site carer etc

Which system?
Equipment can sent alerts to a number of different sources
for action:
be built-in so providing a direct alert to people there (iedomestic smoke detector) send an alert to someone within the same building for
immediate response via: a panel, a mobile phone, aDECT (cordless) phone, pager send an alert to someone forurgent response outsidethe building via: mobile, call centre, text send an alert to someone forinformation via: a panel, amobile, text, email, website, other management system Large schemes (or those with lots of kit) may use a PCbased management system with panels, DECT phone,pager

More about systems Pager or DECT phone will allow staff to move
about within an area to answer/cancel callswithout going to a panel each time DECT phones provide 2 way speech option Calls can be routed to a mobile phone, but
think about the cost if staff are on-site A call centre can cost about 50p per week -think about response time and default position PC based management system canprogramme unique responses/actions to various
parts of the building so every aspect of theenvironment can be pre-planned Some systems can provide activity logs

Beds Occupancy sensors only indicate weight changes.Mats in the bed or on the floor arent accurate ifsomeone moves around a lot or misses them Beams can be fitted on all sides of the bed so it doesmatter how/where someone exits it!
