Janet's Story

Janet's Story

Janet has a diagnosis of dementia and her social worker referred her to have a Sensor kit installed so that her sister, Meg, could keep track of her movements.

Janet has been known to leave her home for short periods but exactly how long, how often and even where she is going has been unknown. There has been at least one incident where the door was left wide open. 

Meg says: “All is working well with the sensors, they are proving to be very useful I am able to keep an eye on my sister which is comforting. At least I know that she doesn’t open the front door at night and when she goes to bed she stays there.”
