[QUOTE="DDD, post: 272132, member: 35"] We live in the "oldest" community in the State of Florida. Maybe it is because I am a senior but really I think you have to take this danger seriously. I'm not sure exactly how many...but...many senior citizens have disappeared around here. They have drown, stumbled and broken legs and driven out of state with no idea of what they should be doing. Often they take a daily walk around the block in their familiar neighborhood and never return. I don't know what choices there are but I would assume a GPS that can be permanently attached to a belt or in the heel of a shoe must be available. The local nursing homes and ALF's have separate sections for those with dementia because evidently there is a drive to walk and wander that is impossible to divert. Good luck in keeping him safe. It's a huge problem DDD [/QUOTE]
