Before You Begin
The Posey Sensor Pad, in conjunction with a Posey Alarm, is an
important part of your fall management protocols. Ensure all
parts of this system are operational before leaving a patient
unattended. This system does not prevent falls or injury from
falls and is not a substitute for patient care, caregiver rounding
and a comprehensive fall management protocol in your facility.
• This device may not be suitable for all high fall-risk patients. See
Posey catalog for other options for such patients.
• NEVER use a restraint on a patient during toileting with this product.
• To prevent damage, NEVER roll, fold, or crease sensor pad.
• NEVER connect Posey sensor pads to other manufacturers’ alarm units.
• NEVER connect Posey Alarms to other manufacturers’ sensor pads.
NOTE: Before using this sensor pad, a Posey Fall Alarm must be
securely mounted near toilet, out of the patient’s reach.
Application Instructions:
1. Read all sensor pad and alarm instructions prior to use.

Alarm should activate when you remove pressure.
• If sensor pad fails any test, stop use at once and replace
with a new sensor pad.

false alarm or no alarm.
