Features of the KeepSafe Deluxe and KeepSafe Deluxe
Nurse Call (KeepSafe Deluxe NC)
(Continued)
• Five alarm tones. There are five different alarm tone options which can be used in different patient
rooms, or to discern between different caregivers or levels of fall risk for easy patient identification.
• Three alarm modes. Three alarm modes allow for facility or alarm choices regarding caregiver
notification in the event the alarm is triggered. The alarm modes are “Voice and Tone”, “Tone only” and
“Voice only”
• high and low volume settings. Two alarm volume settings allow for facility or alarm choices regarding
caregiver notification in the event the alarm is triggered. The volume options are low and high.
• hOlD/SuSPEND Button. Allows you to remove a patient from a bed or chair without the need to
turn off the alarm (e.g., for therapy, toileting or socializing). Alarm will resume monitoring when patient
returns to the bed or chair.
• Sensor monitoring. This alarm connects to any Posey sensor pad, including chair, toilet, above and
below bed mattress and chair belt sensor and PIR sensors. Bed sensors work with most institutional
mattress styles and mattress overlays. Alarm activates when weight is removed from sensor pad, chair
belt sensor is unfastened, or PIR sensor detects activity.
• Nurse Call interface. Provides dual alarm notice at patient’s room and nursing station.
Note: Cat. 8374NC and 8374NPNC come with Nurse Call Cable component as part of the alarm system.
• Failsafe sensor alarm. The Posey KeepSafe Deluxe activates if the alarm is on and a sensor cord is
removed from the alarm.
• Battery operated. The alarm uses four (4) “AAA” alkaline batteries. There are no complicated cords or
risk of power shortages or shock.
• audible low battery warning. Alarm “chirps” about every 15 seconds when batteries need changing.
This sound is different than any of the alarm tones and easily alerts caregivers of the need to change
batteries.
• DC Jack. For optional AC power connection; adapter sold separately.
• impact resistant cover. Helps minimize damage if dropped.
NOTE: Cat. 8374NP (No Power Model) does NoT have an oN/oFF switch. This is to prevent patients or
caregivers from turning off the alarm. The only way to turn off this model is to remove the batteries.
NEVER connect other manufacturers’ sensors to a Posey alarm. use of another
manufacturers’ sensors may damage the Posey alarm, cause the fall monitoring system not to
function as intended, and will void the factory warranty.
