KISA Fall Detection

Falls can happen when least expected, but with KISA Fall Detection, help is never far away.
Using advanced sensors and algorithms, this intelligent technology automatically detects a hard fall and alerts chosen contacts or emergency responders. It is simple, reliable protection that gives users confidence and families reassurance.

Smart Protection When It Matters Most

KISA Fall Detection is an advanced safety feature built into the KISA Phone and KISA Personal Alarm. It automatically detects when a user experiences a hard fall and instantly alerts emergency contacts, without the need for the user to manually activate an alert. Designed for seniors and people at risk of falls, it provides timely support and potentially life-saving intervention, helping users live independently and confidently every day.

Reduce Fear, Increase Confidence

Falls are one of the leading causes of injury among older Australians, with over one-third of people aged 65 and above experiencing a fall each year. The fear of falling is real for many older Australians, who worry about the potential for serious injury and hospitalisation. Beyond physical harm, falling can lead to anxiety, loss of confidence, and reduced mobility.

KISA Fall Detection helps reduce those fears by ensuring help is always close at hand. It gives users the confidence to stay active and independent, while families and carers can relax knowing they will be alerted immediately if a fall occurs.

Benefits include:

  • Immediate response in the event of a fall
  • Greater independence for users who want to remain mobile
  • Confidence and reassurance for families and carers
  • Enhanced wellbeing through reduced anxiety and improved safety

How it All Comes Together

When KISA Fall Detection is activated, the device constantly monitors movement using smart sensors and algorithms. If a significant fall is detected:

1.

The device issues a voice prompt, giving the user 10 seconds to cancel if it was a false alarm.

2.

If not cancelled, the device automatically sends an SMS alert with the user’s geolocation to up to five emergency contacts.

3.

The device then calls the contacts in sequence until one answers.

4.

Once connected, the responder can speak directly with the user through the built-in loudspeaker and microphone.

This process ensures fast, accurate communication and immediate response when it is needed most.
