Dear Residents of Terrace East,

This is a reminder about the importance of using your pendant if you experience a fall, even if you don’t feel hurt. The pendant is an important safety tool that helps ensure you get the help you need right away.

Please remember that after any fall it is essential to have a nurse assess you, even if you feel fine and can get up on your own. This helps ensure your safety and well-being.

Push the pendant to inform the care staff if you fall. Do this at any time of the day or night. And do remember that the pendant can be used at other times if you need assistance from the care team (it is not only for use if you fall).

Thank you for your cooperation!
