Magnetic alarms are crucial in nursing for several reasons:
1. Fall Prevention: Falls are a significant concern in healthcare facilities, especially among the elderly and those with mobility issues. Magnetic alarms can alert staff immediately, reducing the risk of falls. 2. Patient Monitoring: They help in continuously monitoring patients who might attempt to leave their beds or rooms without assistance. 3. Prompt Response: With immediate alerts, nursing staff can quickly attend to patients, ensuring timely intervention and care.
