Fall-Risk Bed Monitoring for Assisted Living, Memory Care & Group Homes

Know when a resident is out of bed, before it becomes a fall

Every fall-risk bed shows on one board, and the right aide’s watch buzzes the moment it matters. Nothing for the resident to wear, and nothing to wire.

What happens at 2:40 AM

How it works

A fall-risk resident gets out of bed. Here is exactly what your system does next, without waking the hall or waiting for the next round.

1. Detect

A thin sensor pad lies on the bed, under the sheet, and senses the instant her weight leaves it. Nothing worn, pressed, or charged.

→

2. Wait smartly

Her tile starts a timer. A normal bathroom trip clears itself, silently. No buzzer, no woken hallway, no alarm fatigue.

→

3. Alert

Still up past the wait you set for her (here, 5 minutes), the tile turns red and the aide’s watch buzzes: “Room 205, up 5 min.” It follows staff anywhere.

→

4. Respond & log

The aide walks straight to 205 and helps her safely back. The whole event is timestamped for your records.

You set the wait. Choose any wait you want, from an immediate alert for a resident who should never get up alone, to several minutes for someone who just needs the bathroom. Set it for the whole floor or per bed, and change it anytime from the station in a few taps.

The heart of the system

Your whole floor on one board

One screen shows every monitored bed as a tile. Green means in bed, red means up too long. You see the whole floor at a glance, without opening a single door or waking anyone.

See every bed at a glance

No more room-by-room rounds just to check who’s safe. One look tells you the whole floor is fine, or exactly which room isn’t.

Smart timeout, far fewer false alarms

Set any wait per resident, immediate to several minutes. Normal bathroom trips stay silent; only real risk pages your team.

Alerts follow staff anywhere

The right aide’s watch buzzes the instant a bed turns red, so no one is chained to the desk.

Every event on the record

The honest comparison

Not just another cheap alarm pad

Most facilities try a cheap buzzer pad first, then watch staff quietly switch it off after the tenth false alarm. Here’s the honest difference.

One simple kit

What’s in the system

The station and one pad for each bed you want to monitor are what every system is built on, and most buildings need a signal repeater as well, sized off your floor plan. Add watches or beepers, pull cords, or the station on your phones only if you want them.

Monitoring Station

A pre-configured touchscreen running the MMCall software. It receives from every bed sensor pad wirelessly and shows every monitored bed as a tile: green in bed, red when up too long. It can also page staff watches or beepers if you add them.

The reach

Signal Repeaters

A bed pad only reaches so far. It’s rated at 260 ft in the open, but you plan on 100 to 150 ft once there are walls between the bed and the station. A repeater sits in between and carries the signal the rest of the way, so a room at the far end pages the same as the one next door. It plugs into an outlet, and that’s the whole install. Most buildings take at least one, and a long wing or a second floor takes more. Send us your floor plan and we’ll mark where they go before you buy.

Pull Cords, Call Buttons & Lights

Add bathroom pull cords and bedside call buttons to grow into a full nurse call system, or corridor and door lights for a visual cue at the room, all on the same watches and station.

The monitoring station, on a phone

The same board on the phone of whoever is on nights: every bed that has stayed red, which room, how long the resident has been up, and whether anybody has been in yet. Nothing reaches a phone until that bed passes the wait you set for it, so a normal bathroom trip stays silent here too. It works from the next hall or from home. Plain texts and email are still there for anyone who prefers them. Your first 30 days are on us, so you can see whether your staff use it before you pay for it.

The monitoring station, on a phone

Somebody opens a one-time link, adds the icon to their home screen and allows notifications. There’s nothing to download, no app store and no password to hand out. From then on that phone shows what the station shows, and a bed that stays up reaches the lock screen. If she already wears a smartwatch, it lands on her wrist too, the same way anything else on that phone would.

BoardBedsReports

It stays as quiet as the board is. A phone only hears about a bed that has passed the wait you set for that resident, which is the rule the tiles already follow. Somebody who gets up, uses the bathroom and goes back to bed inside her wait never reaches anyone. That is the same timeout that keeps the halls quiet, working on the phone.

Everything the station shows. Every bed that is up right now, how long it has been, the wait it is measured against, and whether anybody has been in. The board itself as well, the same green and red tiles the station shows, and the floor plan, so somebody who isn’t in the building sees which room instead of reading a number and picturing it. It keeps itself current, and if the station stops reporting it says so instead of showing a stale screen as though it were live.

The question it answers at 2 a.m. is whether somebody went. A room that has been answered shows how long that took, and one that hasn’t keeps counting and pages again. There’s nothing to tap: an aide answers by walking in, and the bed goes green on its own when the resident is back in it. Most homes buy this with the board and no watches at all, and on those nights the phone is the only thing that reaches somebody who isn’t standing in front of the station — her own phone, and the smartwatch on her wrist if she already wears one, with nothing to buy or charge. What the home gives up there is control of the device: a personal phone or watch can be silenced, set to Do Not Disturb or left on a charger, and it reaches the one person who owns both. The watches we ship are the other trade — they belong to the home, run on the system’s own radio and need no phone and no network, so they reach whoever is on shift rather than whoever owns the right hardware. A pairing link works once, and a phone is revoked from the software the moment somebody leaves.

Every new system comes with 30 days of this at no charge, and we tell you the date it ends. After that it’s $480 a year for the whole home, however many phones you put on it. If you’d rather not commit to a year, it’s $48 a month. Paying for the year is two months free. Nothing starts billing on its own: when the 30 days are up it switches off until you say otherwise. You turn it on from the Billing page of your MMCall account with a card, and from then on it renews by itself, yearly or monthly, until you cancel. Cancel any time from the same page and it runs to the end of what you paid for. It is the one thing that leaves the building, and it covers everything that does: the station on your phones, email alerts, your online reports, and 5,000 texts a year for anyone who would rather get a text (400 a month on the monthly plan). If you text more than that, a pack of 5,000 is $250, one time, and never expires. All of it is optional, so a home running the station, the pads and watches pays nothing after the purchase.
Up and running the same day

Set up in an afternoon, not a work order

It ships pre-configured to your facility. No electrician, no wiring, and no Wi-Fi or internet needed.

1. Unbox the station

The Monitoring Station arrives pre-configured to your rooms. Power it on and the board is live.

→

2. Place the sensors

Lay a thin sensor pad on each fall-risk bed, under the sheet where the resident’s back and hips rest. Nothing to wire, screw in, or mount.

→

3. Set the wait

Choose how long each resident can be up before it alerts, right on the station. Change it any time in a few taps.

That’s it. Most facilities are up and running the same afternoon the box arrives.

Straight answers

The questions every administrator asks first

“Does someone have to watch the screen all night?”

Not if you add watch pagers. The board is your at-a-glance overview at the station, and a bed that stays red past its timeout also pages the assigned aide on the wrist, instead of waiting for someone to look at the screen.

“Won’t it false-alarm every time someone shifts in bed?”

No. You set a bed-exit timeout per resident, so a normal bathroom trip clears itself silently. Staff are only paged if the resident is up longer than you allow: genuine risk, not ordinary movement. That’s the whole difference from a cheap pad that buzzes on every move until someone quietly switches it off.

“Will it work with the beds I already have?”

Yes. The sensor is a thin pad that sits on top of the mattress, under the sheet, and it works with standard, hospital, and adjustable beds alike. Nothing to bolt on and no new furniture to buy; you keep the beds you already have.

In their words

What care teams tell us

“We had the cheap alarm pads that beeped every time someone shifted, so my aides quietly turned them off. This is different. The per-resident timeout means only real bed exits page us, so the alarms stay on and the halls stay quiet at night.”

M
Maria L.
Owner & Administrator, 26-bed assisted living & memory care

“I was skeptical when they said we'd get fewer nuisance alarms, but once we set timeouts per resident they genuinely dropped. What sold me is the log: when a family or surveyor asks what happened overnight, I can print exactly when a resident was up and for how long.”

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is the bed-status board?
It's a single touchscreen, the Monitoring Station, that shows every monitored bed as a tile: green when the resident is in bed, red when they've gotten up. It gives staff the status of the entire floor at a glance, without walking the halls or opening doors.
Does someone have to watch the screen all the time?
The board is your at-a-glance overview at the station. Most facilities also add watch pagers, so the assigned staff are paged on the wrist the moment a bed stays red past its timeout, anywhere in the building. Check the board when it's convenient; the watch catches what matters while staff are on the move.
How is this different from a cheap bed alarm pad?
A basic pad sounds an in-room buzzer every single time the resident moves, which leads to alarm fatigue and disabled alarms. Our system is smarter: you set a bed-exit timeout so only a resident who's been up longer than you allow triggers an alert. On top of that you get a full-floor status board, alerts that follow staff on watch pagers, and event logging for your reports, not just a standalone noisemaker.
Will it cause a lot of false alarms?
That's exactly what the configurable timeout is designed to prevent. A normal nighttime bathroom trip stays quiet; staff are only paged if the resident doesn't return within the wait you choose for them. You can set any wait per resident, from an immediate alert to several minutes, and change it anytime from the station software in a few taps, so the system alerts on genuine concerns instead of ordinary movement.
Does the resident have to wear or do anything?
No. The sensor is a thin pad that sits on the bed, under the sheet. There's nothing to wear, nothing to press, and nothing to charge. This is ideal for residents with dementia or cognitive impairment who won't reliably wear a pendant or press a button.
Can I add call buttons and pull cords later?
Yes. This bed-monitoring package is a starting point, not a dead end. You can add bedside call buttons, bathroom pull cords, common-area buttons, and door lights at any time, and they all run on the same watch pagers and the same station. Many facilities begin with bed monitoring and expand into a complete nurse call system as their needs grow.
Is this the right fit for my type of facility?
It's designed for assisted living, independent living, memory care, group homes, and adult family homes focused on fall prevention. Not sure it fits your setup? Tell us your facility type and state and we'll give you a straight answer before you buy. Note that this system does not offer GPS or room-to-room location tracking.
Do I need Wi-Fi or internet for this to work?
No. The sensors, the Monitoring Station, and the staff watches all talk to each other on their own wireless network, completely separate from your Wi-Fi and the internet. It keeps working even if your internet goes down. The only time you'd touch your regular network is if you add the optional alerting that leaves the building: the station on your phones, or text and email.
What if I have a large campus or multiple buildings?
That's covered. The system runs on its own wireless radio network, and signal repeaters extend the range as far as you need, across floors, wings, and separate buildings, so there are no dead zones. Most single-floor buildings need one repeater (the system builder above includes one by default); larger or multi-wing sites need one or two. Tell us your layout and we'll tell you the exact number before you order, so there's no guesswork on your end.
Does it keep records of bed-exit events?
Yes. Every bed-exit event and alert is logged and stored right on the Monitoring Station, so administrators can pull reports on who got up, when, how long they were out of bed, and whether it rose to an alert, all from the station itself. Any report can be printed or exported to Excel or CSV to hand to a family member or state surveyor. That data supports care planning, staffing decisions, and showing exactly what happened.
How long do the staff watches last on a charge?
Each watch pager runs about 24 hours on a single charge and fully recharges in around 4 hours, so staff can top it up between shifts. The watches are 100% waterproof, vibrate only, and keep recent messages to re-read. The belt-clip beeper is the same price and the same alert, but it sounds as well as vibrating and is water resistant rather than waterproof, so most homes put watches on the night shift. The optional multi charger powers up to 5 of either from a single outlet.
Can staff get alerts on their phone or smartwatch?
Yes. The Monitoring Station runs on a phone as a web app. Somebody opens a one-time link, adds the icon to the home screen and allows notifications. There's nothing to download and no password to hand out. From then on that phone shows what the station shows, and a bed that stays up reaches the lock screen. If she already wears a smartwatch, an Apple Watch or an Android one, it lands on her wrist too, the same way anything else on that phone does. The wrist gets the alert and the full list stays on the phone. It stays as quiet as the board is: a phone only hears about a bed that has passed the wait you set for that resident, so a normal bathroom trip never reaches anyone. Most homes buy this with the board and no watches at all, and on those nights the phone is the only thing that reaches somebody who isn't standing at the station. What you give up is control of the device. A personal phone or watch can be silenced, set to Do Not Disturb or left on a charger, and it reaches the one person who owns it. Online access is optional, and your first 30 days are free. After that it's billed for the whole home, by the year or by the month.
Are there any monthly fees?
No. It's a one-time purchase with no subscriptions and no per-user fees, and adding staff costs nothing. Lifetime technical support, software updates and maintenance are included. What can recur is optional and leaves the building: online access, one line that covers the monitoring station on your phones, email alerts, your online reports and 5,000 texts a year, or 400 a month on the monthly plan. It comes free for your first 30 days on every new system. After that it's $480 a year for the whole home, however many phones and people you put on it, or $48 a month if you prefer, and nothing bills unless you say so. You turn it on yourself from the Billing page of your MMCall account with a card. It then renews on its own until you cancel, which you can do any time from the same page, and it runs to the end of what you paid for. Texting beyond the 5,000 isn't a subscription at all: you buy a prepaid pack of 5,000 that never expires and never renews. Texts and email alerts go out only while online access is on. A home running the station, the pads and watches has zero recurring cost, permanently.
What warranty and support do you provide?
We provide a 2-year warranty on all products and lifetime technical support at no additional cost. If any component malfunctions, ship it back for free repair or replacement. Our support team is available Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM Eastern Time.

Book a call

MMCall systems are supplemental communication tools, not life-safety systems or medical devices. Like any wireless system, message delivery depends on proper installation, radio coverage, power, battery condition, and a connected transmitter. Buttons and pagers run on batteries, and a battery can run down without warning, so test every device and replace batteries on a regular schedule. The system does not replace staffing, supervision, rounds, or your facility’s emergency procedures. See our Terms and Conditions for full product-use terms.
