A database is aimed at helping officers reunite those who get lost with their families.
A new police database is designed to help people who suffer from dementia get back home safely if they get lost.
A computer log of information, police hope, will better connect people who suffer from dementia-related illnesses with their families.
“If the Return Home Registry works just once so police can reacquaint a person with their family in a safe and timely manner, that’ll make the program worthwhile,” said Sgt. Troy Gielish, who is administering the program.
