Preventing falls through
precision sensing
and smart alerts.
BedSet continuously monitors hospital bed height in real time — alerting nursing staff the moment a patient's bed moves outside their individually safe range. Simple technology solving a persistent clinical problem.
Falls are the most common
adverse event in hospitals.
Bed height is a modifiable risk factor. It's not being managed consistently.
Clinical guidelines are clear: hospital beds should be maintained at an individually assessed safe height for each patient at all times. In practice, workflow pressure, competing priorities, and human factors mean this compliance is inconsistent — across every shift, every ward.
Most falls happen in the patient's own room — getting in or out of bed, or on the way to the bathroom. Around 80% are unwitnessed. The patient gets up alone, without calling for help, because they believe they can manage.
BedSet addresses the environmental half of this equation: ensuring that when a patient does get up — assisted or not — the bed is at the right height to minimise injury risk.
Precision sensing.
No wireless. No complexity.
Time-of-Flight laser height detection
A Class 1 ToF laser sensor continuously measures the precise height of the bed surface from the headboard mounting point. Accurate, passive, and invisible to the patient.
Individualised safe range configuration
Each device is configured to a specific patient's assessed safe height range at admission. When the bed moves outside that range — in either direction — an alert is triggered.
Direct nurse call integration
Alerts are delivered via AUX output directly into the facility's existing nurse call infrastructure. No new systems, no new screens, no additional staff training burden.
Motion sensor and time-delay logic
An integrated motion sensor enables configurable time-delay functionality — preventing alert fatigue from brief, incidental adjustments while maintaining vigilance during patient activity.
Regulatory positioning
BedSet aligns with Class I medical device classifications under TGA (Australia) and FDA (USA) frameworks, with identified predicate devices. IEC 60601-1 hospital-grade electrical safety compliant.
From admission to alert —
without clinical overhead.
BedSet integrates into existing ward workflows. No behaviour change required from nursing staff beyond initial configuration at admission.
Falls risk assessment completed. Safe bed height range determined for this patient based on clinical assessment.
Device mounted to bed headboard. Safe height range entered. Takes under two minutes. Sensing begins immediately.
BedSet monitors bed height in real time throughout the patient's stay. Silent, passive, and invisible to the patient.
When height moves outside range, a visual alert triggers and the nurse call system is notified. Staff respond before the patient moves.
Grounded in evidence.
Validated by guidelines.
An integrated education
program for patients.
Eight interactive modules, designed for hospital use, reviewed by an independent clinical Education Panel.
Clinical insight meets
engineering precision.
BedSet was founded by a clinician and an engineer who saw the same problem from different angles — and built the same solution.
Brings deep clinical expertise in hospital environments and patient safety. Identified bed height compliance as an unaddressed modifiable risk factor in daily clinical practice.
Engineering and commercial expertise spanning hardware development, manufacturing strategy, and go-to-market execution. Leads technical architecture and regulatory pathway.
