Medical Alarms (Wholesale) is a subdivision of the Medical, Dental, and Hospital Equipment and Supplies (Wholesale) industry. Companies in this industry specialize in the wholesale distribution of medical alarms, which are devices that alert healthcare providers or emergency services in the event of a medical emergency. These alarms are typically worn by patients who are at risk of falls, seizures, or other medical emergencies, and can be triggered by a variety of sensors, including motion detectors, pressure sensors, and heart rate monitors. Medical alarms are an important tool for ensuring the safety and well-being of patients, particularly those who are elderly or have chronic medical conditions.
