Visible slip-and-fall prevention for senior living facilities.


The $189 sign that turns blue when surfaces freeze — installed at every exit, built into your fall-prevention protocol, and visible when surveyors ask what you did. No batteries. No subscriptions. No question whether your team took action.

A $64,000 slip-and-fall costs your facility $189 to prevent.


IceAlert® turns blue the moment outdoor surfaces approach freezing — so your team can act, document, and protect every visitor, employee, and resident at every exit. No batteries. No wiring. No subscription.

The Math

One slip-and-fall claim costs more than outfitting every exit you have.

Senior living facilities face the highest per-claim slip-and-fall exposure of any commercial category. Most operators have never priced the alternative.

How it works

A visual warning system that doesn't depend on power, people, or apps.

1

Install at every exit


Mounts in minutes with included hardware. Wall, post, or existing structure. One person, one screwdriver, one sign per door. No electrical, no commissioning.


2

Full blue at 32°F


The bimetallic indicator mechanically reveals a bright blue warning the moment surfaces approach freezing. Visible from any angle, in any light, day or night.


3

A live, visual warning


Staff notices the signal, applies salt or sand, and logs the action. Every freezing event becomes a documented response — exactly what surveyors, carriers, and lawyers want to see.


Where Every Facility Should Install

Most facilities install 4 to 8 signs. Larger CCRC campuses install 10 or more.

A single sign on the main exit leaves five other fall-risk doors undocumented. Coverage matters — both for protection and for the audit trail.

01

Main resident exit

Highest visitor traffic. Highest visibility. Highest fall liability per square foot of any door on your property.

02

Ambulance & transport bays

Where falls cost the most. EMS and transport partners notice — and document — surface conditions on arrival.

03

Employee exit

Workers' comp exposure. Staff falls before sunrise are among the most common — and most preventable — claims.

04

Resident wing exits

Doors to courtyards, gardens, and outdoor patios — used by residents who are leaving a warm building and not thinking about ice.

05

Kitchen & supply delivery

Vendor traffic at dawn. Hand-trucks on icy concrete. A documented hazard category your insurer already knows about.

06

Parking lot & curb cuts

Visitor drop-off points and ADA crossings. Surface temperature at the curb can be 10°F lower than at the front door.

Average facility deployment: 6 signs at $189 each — roughly the cost of a single ER visit, amortized across a 10+ year service life.

Built Into Your Protocol

Surface Safe

Surveyors don't just want to know what you did about a hazard. They want to know how you knew it was there, how your staff was alerted, what your standing protocol is, and how you'd prove it on the worst day of your year.


IceAlert is one component of a documented fall-prevention program. It gives every entrance a visible, always-on indicator that integrates into your staff response procedures and shows up in every facility safety walk.


The signs themselves are mechanical. They cannot fail to a software bug, miss a Wi-Fi outage, or run out of battery during the storm that puts a resident in the ER.


CMS F-689 / 42 CFR § 483.25(d)


Free of accident hazards

Facilities must ensure the resident environment remains "as free of accident hazards as is possible" and that each resident receives adequate supervision and assistance devices to prevent accidents.

IceAlert is one tool in a fall-prevention program. It does not satisfy any specific regulation on its own. We recommend pairing installation with documented response protocols, staff training, and a regular surface treatment cadence.

This sign has benefited our staff and residents with weather conditions that develop rapidly and is a highly visible system that is viewed daily during our harsh winters in central PA. I highly recommend this alert system to all businesses to provide the necessary steps for preventing falls and injuries.

common questions

What risk managers ask before a chain rollout.

Our standard warranty is 2 years. In real-world use, the bimetallic indicator continues working reliably for 10+ years. The only wear item is the sign face itself, which gradually yellows from UV exposure (similar to a car headlight) and is typically replaced around year 7 for visibility. No batteries, no electronics, no service contract.

Yes. The indicator begins rotating at 38°F regardless of humidity, sun, or snow conditions. It works in dry cold, wet cold, overnight freezes, and shoulder-season black ice — the most dangerous and least visible condition for senior fall risk.

Most facilities install 4–8 signs: one at each major exit, plus coverage of high-traffic parking and walkway zones. Our free site design tool can help recommend quantity and placement based on your actual facility map.

No — but coverage matters. A single sign on the main entrance leaves the rest of your fall-risk doors undocumented. Most facilities install 4–8 signs to cover resident entrances, employee doors, ambulance bays, and high-traffic outdoor pathways.

Yes. For chain orders of 25+ units we offer custom logo signage. Visit our custom logo page or contact us directly at 503.692.6656.

Signs mount with standard hardware to walls, posts, or existing structures in a few minutes each. No electrical, no commissioning, no special tools. One maintenance person can deploy an entire facility in an afternoon.

Stock orders ship within 1 business days from our Lake Oswego, Oregon facility. Large orders (100+ units) and custom-branded orders have extended lead times quoted at time of order.
