SURE® Advisor System Solutions for You
For Patients
- Freedom from alarm noise: SURE Advisor System notifications to nurses are silent in the room.
- Comfort: with the sensor pad under the mattress or a chair cushion, the sweaty discomfort of the pad is gone.
- A good night’s uninterrupted sleep.
- Greater safety, because nursing staff are quickly made aware of an unseen fall risk situation.
- Skin care: because the pad is placed under a mattress or cushion, it does not impede the ability of the therapeutic surface to reduce pressure.
- Nurses can see how long the patient has been in the same position and reposition the patient to help reduce possible skin issues.
For Bedside Nurses
- Awareness of individual needs: at the start of each shift, a report on fall and skin risk activity over the prior 24 hours.
- Awareness of risk-change events: a notification on their mobile device.
- Relative patient calm: a quiet environment without fall risk alarms. The SURE Monitor is silent.
- Clear ownership: one nurse accepts a notification with a tap, letting other responders know it’s handled.
- Easier incident reporting: who, what and when are recorded automatically, and a report with added detail can be completed in the room.
- End-of-shift reporting: details of bed and chair risk activity are available for quick reference.
- Less wasted time:
- Because the intelligent STEALTH™ Sensor Pad is under a mattress or chair cushion, it is unlikely to come into contact with bodily fluids that require cleanup.
- Because the sensor pad is under the mattress, it doesn’t need repositioning when the bed is made, eliminating that time cost.
- Work overload: management reports show the frequency and timing of nursing responses, allowing management to make needed adjustments.
For Unit Supervisors

- A special alert if no responder is signed in.
