Bring Fall Protection Into The Bathroom

You already rely on bed and chair alarms to keep patients safe — but one of the most common fall risks is in the bathroom. Posey® Wireless Toilet Sensors extend your prevention protocols into this high-risk area, alerting you when assistance is needed.

Wireless toilet seat sensors offer hospitals and other care facilities a new way to enhance their existing toileting protocols and can help address the issue of unexpected toilet seat exits by fall risk patients. Toileting-related falls remain one of the most common and dangerous types of inpatient falls — a study of 353 falls occurring at 17 U.S. hospitals over a period of 2 years reported that 42.5% of the 353 falls were related to toileting and 21.5% of the 353 falls occurred in the bathroom. 

By adding a wireless toilet sensor, you close this critical gap and get alerts as a patient attempts to stand up off the toilet alone.

Enhance Patient Safety

A wireless toilet sensor provides an added layer of protection when a patient is attempting to exit the toilet without assistance by sending an alert to staff before a fall occurs. This early warning allows staff to respond promptly, helping to prevent falls and related injuries.

Improve Staff Efficiency

Traditional fall prevention methods often rely on periodic rounding or toileting schedules, which can strain staff resources and still leave gaps in monitoring. Wireless toilet sensors integrate seamlessly into existing alarm systems, notifying caregivers when assistance is needed on the toilet. Its wireless functionality simplifies installation freeing up some time for nurses, helping you work more efficiently, cover more ground, and reduce response times when it matters most.

Helps Give Patients Dignity

For many patients, maintaining dignity during toileting is a personal concern. The wireless toilet sensor helps preserve dignity by minimizing intrusive monitoring methods. Nurses can monitor patients in the bathroom through the sensor’s weight removal detection, allowing patients to retain a sense of autonomy while still staying safe.

Hospitals that embrace an integrated, data-driven strategy—combining clinical best practices with wireless sensors, alarms, and environmental safeguards—are better equipped to protect patients, reduce fall-related costs, and lead in safety innovation.

Our product suite supports key clinical and environmental elements:

  • Universal fall precautions: Non-slip socks, fall risk identifiers (bracelets, magnets, blankets)
  • Environmental design: fall mats
  • Technology integration: Wireless bed, chair, and toilet sensors
  • Staff support tools: Gait belts for safe ambulation

By blending technology, environment, and training, Posey helps hospitals create a proactive fall prevention system—one that empowers staff, protects patients, and aligns with your care standards.

A Layered Product Approach

Your Protocols - Our Partnership

Posey is here to strengthen your hospital’s protocols—not replace them.

We understand the importance of consistency in patient care. That’s why our solutions are designed to seamlessly support your existing fall prevention program, helping you enhance safety without disrupting your workflow.

From evidence-based tools to trusted clinical outcomes—Posey has your fall program covered.

 

Fall Risk Identification: Magnets, bracelets, blankets, and non-slip socks are visual cues that support the patient’s care plan by promoting awareness across the care team and reinforcing fall prevention protocols without disrupting workflow.

Patient Monitoring: Wireless fall alarms and sensors help prevent patient falls by alerting staff when at-risk patients try to move without assistance. They support care plans by enabling quick response times and adding an extra layer of safety

Mobility: Gait belts are a hands-on safety tool that help staff assist patients during transfers and walking. By supporting safe movement, gait belts align with the care plan and promote patient confidence while protecting both patients and staff.

Injury Reduction: Fall mats and hip protectors meet fall prevention protocols by reducing injury severity during falls, supporting individualized care plans, and complementing broader safety strategies in healthcare settings.
