Enhancing Safety in Aged Care with Indigo Care’s Chair Sensor Mat & Deluxe Fall Alarm Monitor

Prevent Falls. Protect Dignity. Promote Independence.

Falls are a leading cause of injury among older adults, particularly in aged care and home care settings. At Indigo Care, a division of Horizon Electronics Company Pty. Ltd., we are committed to delivering the highest standard of resident safety—without compromising dignity or independence. One of our most effective fall prevention tools is the use of Indigo Care’s Chair Sensor Mat paired with our Deluxe Fall Alarm Monitor.

What is the Indigo Care Chair Sensor Mat?

Indigo Care’s Premium Chair Sensor Mat is a pressure-sensitive mat designed to detect when a resident begins to rise from their chair. When used with our Deluxe Fall Alarm Monitor, the system immediately alerts caregivers, ensuring rapid response to prevent potential falls.

These sensor mats are:

• Designed for use in aged care facilities or home care environments
• Ideal for residents at risk of falling or those who require assistance to stand
• Easy to use—placed centrally under the resident’s bottom, on the chair seat

? A light covering may be used, but memory foam cushions can affect performance. Always test the sensor pad before regular use.

• Pair up to 8 sensor mats/transmitters to a single monitor
• Use with wheelchairs, communal areas, or throughout the facility
• Each mat connects via RJ11 plug to a specifically designed wireless transmitter (powered by 2x AAA batteries)

The monitor can:
