No—you should never bend, fold or roll a sensor pad unless explicitly instructed to do so by the manufacturer. Sensor pads contain a delicate grid of sensors that are used to relay information back to the fall prevention monitor when a patient gets on or off of the pad. Bending, folding or rolling can permanently damage this grid, causing the pad to fail. It is important to keep sensor pads completely flat both when in storage and when in use for your patients’ safety. (Bent, folded or rolled sensor pads is considered abuse and is not warranted by Crest or its manufacturers.)
