The issues with diagnosis, care and costs related to Alzheimer s disease are as difficult to solve as they are troubling. But wandering can be mitigated, simply and inexpensively, through programs that are now being used in some Maine communities and should be considered elsewhere.

One of these programs, known as , is coming to four central Maine communities. Now being used by police and sheriff s departments in Waldo and Knox counties, the program gives <a href=http://www.symbiose.ca/images/christianlouboutin.gwij.php>Christian Louboutin Outlet</a>  police access to information about local residents who are believed by their relatives to be in danger of wandering. If that person disappears, police can instantly call up and disseminate photographs and personal and medical information, allowing for a faster, more effective search.

The Wanderers Database is not the only help available. In June, police in Auburn and Ogunquit began using the national Project Lifesaver program, in which the person at risk for wandering wears a bracelet that emits a radio signal.
+
There are GPS-based systems, as well, such as Comfort Zone, a program through the Alzheimer s Association that allows families and caregivers to locate wanderers using a wearable device and a Web-based mapping program. And there are more low-tech options, such as the MedicAlert SafeReturn program, which helps track people down using an ID bracelet connected to a national hotline.

But The Wanderers Database, and others like it, puts the information directly in <a href=http://www.symbiose.ca/images/christianlouboutin.gwij.php>Christian Louboutin Outlet</a>  the hands of police, who are in the best position to conduct a search and spread the word to nearby communities.

And the programs are not just suitable for people with dementia. They can all be used for children diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder, who also are prone to wander.
+
In fact, the Autism Society of Maine suggests that parents who have a child on the autism spectrum pre-emptively provide emergency responders with specific information about how to approach their child if he or she goes missing. That is the same information provided to police through The Wanderers Database, except in the latter case it is electronic, and thus easy to access and distribute to responders in the field during an emergency.

Alzheimer s disease must be reckoned with in the coming years, in Maine as much as anywhere else. The number of Alzheimer s cases in Maine, the nation s oldest state, is expected to increase by in the next six years alone.

That comes <a href=http://www.alportico.net/gosoc.php> true religion outlet</a>  with many long-term challenges, from attracting enough caregivers to figuring out how to pay for the astronomical Medicare costs associated with the disease. But with the tracking programs so readily available, the danger, and the anguish, presented by wandering can be abated now.
