Alzheimer’s & dementia
They will go out one day and not know the way back.
Someone will find them. Make sure that someone can find you.
Six in ten people living with dementia will wander at least once. It rarely looks like an emergency from the outside — it looks like a person out for a walk, in the wrong clothes, at the wrong hour, being politely asked if they are alright.
The hardest part is that nobody realizes anything is wrong.
A neighbor sees someone out at four in the morning. They ask if everything is okay and get a confident, reassuring answer, because a person with dementia can hold a short conversation long after they have lost the thread of where they live. So the neighbor goes back inside.
Hours can pass that way. Not because people don’t care — because nothing about the moment tells them to act, and there is no way to check.
One tap, and the doubt is gone.
A tag gives that neighbor something to do besides guess. They hold their phone to it and your page opens — who this person is, who to call, and what would help right now. It turns a vague worry into a phone call to you.
What the finder sees
You choose every field. Anything you leave blank simply is not shown.
- Their name, and what they like to be called
- The family member to call first, and a second if that fails
- That they live with memory loss — said plainly, without alarming anyone
- What tends to calm them, and what tends not to
- Anything a paramedic would want to know
Questions people actually ask
Will they take it off?
It is designed not to invite that. There is nothing to charge, nothing that lights up or beeps, and nothing that announces a diagnosis to a room. Most families put it on a keyring, a watch band, a wallet card or a coat zipper — something already part of getting dressed.
Is this a medical alert device?
No, and it is not sold as one. It does not call anybody, monitor anything or summon help on its own. It carries the information you put on it, and shows it to whoever taps it. For a fall-detection or emergency-response service, you want a different product alongside this one.
Can I update it as things change?
Any time, from your dashboard, as many times as you need. The tag itself never changes — it points at a page you control, so a new phone number or a new care home takes effect the moment you save it.
Looking for something else?
You cannot watch every door.
But you can make sure that whoever finds them knows exactly who to call.
