Description
The Skil-Care Seat Belt Alarm, Buckle Sensor with Grommet Attachment is a reliable wheelchair safety mobility device designed to help caregivers monitor residents who may be at risk of falls or unsupervised wheelchair exits. Residents who attempt to leave a wheelchair without assistance can face increased risks of injury, wandering, or accidental falls. This wheelchair seat belt system helps reduce those risks by combining a non-restrictive nylon wheelchair belt with an integrated buckle-activated alarm sensor. When the buckle is secured, the system enters monitoring mode, and if the resident unbuckles the belt, the alarm immediately sounds to alert caregivers. The system automatically resets once the buckle is refastened, supporting continuous monitoring during wheelchair use. Designed with reinforced grommet attachment holes for secure installation on standard wheelchairs, this safety mobility device helps improve caregiver response time while supporting safer seated positioning and mobility supervision. Enhance wheelchair monitoring and resident safety with the dependable Skil-Care Seat Belt Alarm system.
