Toronto, ON (April 11, 2011) - IgeaCare Solutions Inc. has announced the release of its new miALERT, an affordable, emergency notification device designed to enhance communications and patient safety in residential homes, assisted and retirement living facilities.

“miALERT is an exciting, low-cost addition to our growing nurse call and personal emergency response portfolio,” says Michael Rochon, CEO of IgeaCare Solutions. “This is the first of many product releases planned for 2011. We are primed to deliver a wave of new, patient-safety devices designed to address the many changing needs and requirements of our customers.”

miALERT is a flexible, scalable, home-based or enterprise-class notification solution, providing a robust resident or patient emergency monitoring offering to the healthcare market.

The miALERT solution provides two-way voice communication, between mobile caregivers or monitoring stations and residents, and is easily installed at an affordable cost. Coupled with an advanced pendant design, it delivers the flexibility and superior patient protection demanded by modern facilities and home-based installations.

The two-button, ergonomic pendant design provides advanced functionality over competitive offerings. It can be worn four different ways depending on the wearer’s preference: watch strap, bangle, neck-strap and belt clip – giving active seniors the ability to choose a solution that fits their lifestyle.

miALERT’s base station provides three unique service or, patient/resident monitoring offerings to suit different emergency notification needs. The “miFIVE” offering allows up to five pre-programmed numbers to reach contacts within the customer’s personal circle of care. The “miHOSTED” offering allows a connection to a remote or on-site central server providing call escalation, reporting, nurse assignments, nurse tracking and advanced nurse call notification. The final offering, ”miCALL”, provides a direct, live, connection to a call center where emergency or personal contacts are notified and dispatched. Each service offering provides live, two-way, voice communication between the person calling for help and a live responder.

The miALERT solution is also designed to utilize environmental triggers to initiate a call, supporting advanced monitoring and enhanced resident safety. Inexpensive wireless devices connect to: smoke, carbon monoxide, stove activity and flood detectors; door contacts, temperature and toilet-flush sensors. Check-in and medication reminder services are also available. Wall buttons and pull cords can be added to provide additional resident safety/trigger points, expanding coverage within any facility or residence.
