For many of us, the words "medical alert" immediately brings to mind the campy 1980s television commercial "Help! I've fallen and I can't get up"®. Dementia adds another layer of risk when your loved one no longer associates wet floors with falls, the odor of burnt food with fire, or connects landmarks to location.
Modern assistive technologies are available, for people experiencing early stages of Dementia, that can ease a caregiver's mind and keep someone we love safe in their home for as long as possible.
