Description The NYOrtho Door Guard serves as an effective visual deterrent designed specifically to prevent wandering residents, such as those with Alzheimerʼs or Dementia, from accessing restricted areas. Not only does it bolster fall management efforts, but it also actively dissuades confused individuals from entering zones that could be harmful or off-limits to them. Features Catches the eye and deters wandering. Reduces the risk of falls by preventing unauthorized access. Discouraging confused residents from entering off-limit zones. Attaches easily with adhesive hook and loop strips to the door frame and removes easily in case of emergency. Available in multiple sizes to suit a variety of doorways. Actual size is 4 inches longer. The extra 4 inches—2 on each side—allows the Velcro panels to attach securely to the door frame or adjacent wall, ensuring the banner stays firmly in place across the doorway.
