Safe Return Program

In a move to significantly improve the safety of individuals with Alzheimer’s, the Alzheimer’s Association and the MedicAlert Foundation have created an alliance to bring you MedicAlert® and Alzheimer’s Association Safe Return®.

When a person with dementia wanders or becomes lost, one call immediately activates a community support network to help reunite the lost person with his or her caregiver. When a person is found, a citizen or law official calls the toll-free 24-hour emergency response number on the identification product and the individual's family or caregivers are contacted.

The nearest Alzheimer's Association office provides support during search and rescue efforts. In addition, should medical attention be required, access to a personal health record is immediately available.

For $49.95, with a $25 annual renewal fee, the enrollment kit includes:

• MedicAlert Identification bracelet or pendant 
• Wallet card  
• "6 Steps to a Safe Return" magnet 
• Personal Health Record Summary 
• Alzheimer's Association brochure
