WHAT IS WANDERING?
Wandering is the term given when an elderly person leaves their home in search of something; however, they don't know where this "thing" is and often become lost and can become seriously ill or worse. Wandering is often associated with Alzheimer's disease and dementia. It can happen in various ways, such as when a person leaves their home to go to the grocery store, for example, and then forgets where they are going or where they came from. They can become confused, scared, and lost. Those who are at-risk for wandering often show signs beforehand that include pacing, walking in circles, repetitive movements like opening and closing doors, or following others. Wander management and prevention tools, such as Accutech's Wander Management system, can help.
