Keeping Your Loved Ones Safe: Tips for Managing Wandering in Alzheimer’s
In a recent incident in Kenwood, St Petersburg, police were called to assist in locating a woman in her late 80s with early-stage Alzheimer's. She had left her home for a walk and was later found disoriented and confused. Such situations are distressing but not uncommon, and they underscore the importance of proactive measures to ensure the safety of individuals with dementia.
Preventive Strategies to Consider:
Secure Your Home: Installing additional locks or security systems can prevent unsupervised exits.
Movement Alarms: Consider using devices that alert you when your loved one is attempting to leave.
Stay Connected: Keep mobile phones charged and within reach to maintain communication.
Wearable ID: Personal identification bracelets or tags can provide crucial information if they wander.
Immediate Actions if Your Loved One Goes Missing:
Notify Friends and Neighbors: Ask them to keep an eye out for any signs of your loved one appearing lost or distressed.
Alert the Authorities: Inform the police immediately to aid in the search.
Be Prepared: Keep a recent photo and a list of their favorite haunts handy, as they often gravitate towards familiar places.
Wandering can be a challenging aspect of Alzheimer’s care, but with the right strategies, you can reduce the risks and keep your loved ones safer.
