Project Lifesaver was established in Chesapeake, Virginia, in 1999, in response to the growing concern regarding elderly residents who suffer from Alzheimer’s/dementia. This population has a tendency to wander away from their caregivers, putting themselves at great personal risk, and causing anxiety and worry in family members. In one recent case in St. Mary’s County, a woman walked away from her home, and tragically died before being located. Project Lifesaver is an electronic tracking system that has proven highly effective in other jurisdictions. It allows for faster tracking of persons in this at-risk population. A watch-sized transmitter is attached to the patient, monitored daily by the caregiver and monthly by volunteers who change the battery. Should the person wander away, trained volunteers are brought in with receivers to locate the missing individual. Current success rate is 100 percent, with an average search time of 22 minutes.

St. Mary’s County Department of Aging’s Adult Day Services program is a licensed daytime health services program designed to meet the health care and social needs of adults with significant physical or cognitive challenges. Program participants are typically unable to stay home alone because of their physical or mental challenges and have complex health needs that require daily attention. Individuals usually become program participants as a result of a referral by physicians, families and caregivers or other health and social service agencies in the community.

Many program participants are eligible to have their care covered under the Medical Assistance Program. Individualized plans of care are developed by a multi-disciplinary team of health care and social work professionals to meet the restorative and maintenance needs of persons with physical, mental, and functional disabilities and to assist their caregivers in coping with the stress of providing care. For more information on any of these programs, contact Sonia Perez at 301-373-6515.
