Thanks,
| for selec ng the Rodger bedwe ng alarm
It is our experience that you will be successful by using this bedwe ng alarm correctly.
Please read all instruc ons before using the bedwe ng alarm.
• The Rodger bedwe ng system is suitable for children over the age of 5 years.
• When beginning the therapy, be mo vated, relaxed and confi dent.
• Perform the alarm test so you and your child will become familiar with the opera on
and sound of the bedwe ng alarm. Repeat this before your child goes to sleep.
• Make no contest of the therapy. This will cause stress and is counterproduc ve.
• Place the bedwe ng alarm a certain distance from the bed, so your child has to get
out of bed to switch off the alarm.
• Give your child an occasional reward. A small present is a nice posi ve reinforcement
that your child is doing well.
• Use the Rodger bedwe ng system every night un l there have been no "wet beds"
for 14 consecu ve nights.
• Successful treatment with the Rodger bedwe ng system takes from a few weeks to
a few months. Persistence is the key to success.
• Do your best to use the alarm every night without interrup on.
• If your child's bedwe ng condi on does not improve within 3 months, visit your
doctor to rule out any medical condi ons.
• Do not start the therapy if important events will take place soon, i.e. moving the
family or the birth of a child.
• Do not wake your child at night to go to the toilet.
• Never punish your child; your child is not responsible for occasional accidents.
• Do not prohibit your child from drinking before going to bed. Drinking less does not
decrease the likelihood of bedwe ng. However, it is preferable that your child does not
drink coff ee, tea, or beverages containing carbona on or chocolate before going to bed.
• In the early days of the treatment, a child who is a heavy sleeper might not wake up.
You could choose another sound of the alarm. Another good solu on could be to
sleep next to your child and help your child to wake up as soon as the alarm sounds.
Make sure that your child stops the alarm and goes to the toilet. In me, your child
will "tune in" and do this more independently.
• If relapse occurs, another short course will usually succeed. Store all parts together
for future use. Remove ba ery before storing.
