The DepartAlert™ Anti-Wandering System provides
peace of mind for caregivers.

Wandering patients or loved ones can get into trouble if they go outside unattended. The DepartAlert™ Anti-Wandering System will alert you instantly if someone attempts to open a door. Additionally, the wanderer is reminded, visually and audibly, that they should not be exiting through that door.

When a patient is wearing the included wristband transmitter and comes within 10 feet of the door alarm, the alarm will sound and lights will flash. The alarm can only be deactivated with a Caregiver Key.

The DepartAlert™ Anti-Wandering System comes with:

• One Door Alarm Bar with AC power adapter

• One Resident Wristband Transmitter

• One Caregiver Key

Door Alarm Bar: The alarm bar should be mounted next to (and parallel to) the door frame using the included double-sided adhesive strips. It is powered by the included AC power adapter. When the resident comes within the "caution area" of the door alarm (approximately 10 feet), the alarm will beep and the lights along the alarm bar will blink. The alarm can only be deactivated with the Caregiver Key. (The alarm beep is high-pitched, but not extremely loud, so be sure to test that you can hear it wherever you are likely to be.)

Resident Wristband: The resident wristband consists of a waterproof transmitter and wristband, both made of durable plastic. The wristband is designed like a watch band and has multiple settings to fit your patient properly. Once the wristband is snapped in place, it cannot be removed without cutting the band itself. The resident wristband can be worn in the shower or when bathing.

Additional Resident Wristbands are available if you are caring for multiple patients. Replacement bands are also available.

Caregiver Key: This "key" is used to deactivate the door alarm once it has been set off. Therefore, the caregiver key must be kept somewhere accessible in order to turn off the alarm when necessary. The key is also required to activate the resident wristband.

The DepartAlert™ Anti-Wandering System is an excellent complement to good caregiving practices and is compliant with most regulatory anti-wandering requirements for small facilities.

It is both a reminder to the forgetful patient and a top-notch alert system for the caregiver. Using this system, you gain extra confidence that your patient or loved one will stay safe and secure.

Double Door DepartAlert™ Anti-Wandering System (DL2285) comes with:

• Two Door Alarm Bars with one AC power adapter

• One Resident Wristband Transmitter

• One Caregiver Key

Magnetic Contact (DL2283):

When using this option, the alarm will only sound when the door is opened AND the resident wearing a wristband is within the monitored field. It comes with a magnetic piece that attaches to the door and a contact piece with a lead wire that attaches to the Door Alarm Bar. This option is particularly helpful if the resident passes by the door often during the course of a day and could cause false alarms.

Additional Resident Wristband (DL2281):

The system comes with one Resident Wristband (Transmitter plus Wristband Strap). If you have more residents to monitor, you will need additional Resident Wristbands.

Wristband Strap (DL2284):

Unfortunately, once a Wristband Strap is secured on the resident, it needs to be cut off. When a resident no longer requires monitoring, you may want to recycle the Transmitter. You will need a replacement Wristband Strap.
