In my professional opinion, elderly populations enjoy remaining active and receive satisfaction from maintaining independence. This not only prevents skin breakdown from lack of movement but also reduces pain from being immobile. My professional passion includes supporting patients in aging.
The GoSafe Medical Alert System will provide much needed safety and independence at home. ]]> 2018-07-27 01:51:31 UTC https://padlet.com/ladonna28_willis/b9wcywmdlwxu/wish/271250675 ladonna28_willis https://padlet.com/ladonna28_willis/b9wcywmdlwxu/wish/271251623 On the medical-surgical unit, it is not uncommon to admit a patient that ha been laying on the hard floor for hours or days with varying admitting diagnosis ranging from a hematoma to subdural bleed. When patients are asked, "What happened", their response is usually, "I fell..." Elderly populations do not like to feel like a burden to anyone and so they try to make it on their own.
Adult children struggle with their parents decision to continue living independently. Oftentimes, discussion ends with someone moving in to assist with daily activities. By investing in the GoSafe Medical Alert System, loved ones minds could be at eased. This technology offers 24 hour seven day a week response, cellular and landline option. The system can locate patients using six ways and can detect a fall.  If a fall occurs the response team can send/alert  the emergency medical  services (EMS) if you are unable to speak.
