Follow on Google News | New Technology Immediately Locates Individuals With Dementia Or Alzheimer’s Who WanderMobileAlert, a Connecticut based company, has developed a solution to this frightening experience. Introducing the LovedOneLocator™ - the first pendant style GPS locator with 2-way voice communication, and 24/7 monitoring.
By: MobileAlert When an individual with Alzheimer’s does wander, it is often very difficult for caregivers to find them. According to the Alzheimer's Association more than 60 percent of people who have Alzheimer's wander at some point. The search process often involves caregivers, local communities, and the police. Sometimes there is assistance from a radio frequency if the wandering individual is wearing a wrist or ankle device; however this still does not pin point where an individual is at any given time, and the frequency only works within reach of the radio antenna. This set of circumstances often results in a long and frustrating search, one where time is critical. MobileAlert, a Connecticut based company, has developed a solution to this frightening experience. Introducing the LovedOneLocator™ “When you think about the process of having to find someone who wanders, when you don’t know where they are or where they could be headed, the LovedOneLocator is truly a game changer,” says Jon Sullivan, Co-Founder of MobileAlert. “Preventing someone with dementia, Alzheimer’s, or a child with autism, from wandering can be difficult because you never know when they will just take off. Now, families and caregivers can have piece of mind that if their loved one does wander, they can be found immediately.” The LovedOneLocator™ MobileAlert is a US based distributor and manufacturer of easy-to-use mobile health technologies. The products and services offered by MobileAlert include body-worn GPS devices, software to provide visual tracking for these devices, and related accessories.
