IRMA – Infra-red Movement Alarm

Irma is Vitalcare’s portable general purpose movement alarm and ideal for fall prevention by immediately identifying when a resident attempts to leave their bed, chair or room. Primarily designed to replace bed and floor mats but is also ideal for a range of general movement alarm applications.

Irma is a self-contained device that contains a sensor, wireless call point and backup battery. It requires no external cables or connectors and is programmed through the Vitalcare smartphone application.

Irma uses an infra-red sensor that is focused out a small aperture in the front of the device. Should the sensor ‘see’ movement within the configurable beam, it activates a nurse call alarm to pagers, wall displays, smartphones or DECT phones with a customised message such as “Out of bed alarm room 4”.
