Wandering Prevention & Response Kit
60% of people with dementia will wander. 6 in 10 not found within 24 hours face serious injury or death.
This toolkit gives you the prevention plan, the risk assessment, and the step-by-step emergency response protocol you need — before a crisis happens, not after.
There is no 24-hour waiting period for a vulnerable adult with dementia. Call 911 immediately. This toolkit tells you exactly what to do from the moment someone goes missing.
