What if a Fall Occurs?

Unfortunately one third of all adults 65 and older will suffer a fall this year, when this occurs you want to make sure that you've taken every precaution to reduce the effects of that fall.  Home Delivery Medical offers two product lines that will bring added safety to your home and reduce the likelihood of serious injury due to a fall.  The first product I'd like to cover is Personal Safety Corporation's Hip Protector.  These Hip Protectors are proven to reduce the force associated with a fall to a point below the facture threshold of the hips, according to a study performed by Collision and Injury Dynamics, Inc.

The next product available to increase the safety of your home is Personal Safety Corporation's Reversible Safety Floor Mat Set, MAT-1.  This floor mat is designed to both cushion your fall and to sound a built in alarm notifying your loved one or in-home healthcare provider that you need assistance.  This product as well as PSC's Hip Protectors are designed with you and your safety in mind and are available on Home Delivery Medical's website, www.HomeDeliveryMedical.com, come on by and let us show you how we're Improving Life at Home!

Fall Management Alarms

One of the best ways to increase your quality of life and ensure a greater peace of mind is to reduce the likelihood of falls.  More than one third of all adults in the United States fall each year, these falls are the most common cause of injuries and trips to the hospital and they account for the majority of deaths due to injury in the senior population.  To combat this far reaching issue Home Delivery Medical offers several fall management alarms that are designed to both warn you and/or your in-home caregiver before a fall occurs.  The alarms made by Personal Safety Corporation, MAG-3 or SAM-1, and Smart Caregiver Corporation, TL-01, TL-02, or TL-2000, are designed with a pull cord connected to your clothing and a monitor; once the connection to the monitor is severed an alarm is sounded alerting you regain control and/or your in-home caregiver that you need assistance.  For most living at home is the ideal situation, why not make it even better!
