VULNERABLE PERSONS REGISTRY<br />

Do you know someone living with dementia?<br />

3 out of 5 people living with<br />

dementia will go missing at some<br />

point, a frightening experience,<br />

and a dangerous one.<br />

That’s why the <strong>Alzheimer</strong> Society<br />

of Sarnia-Lambton is partnering<br />

with The Sarnia Police Services and<br />

OPP to provide an opportunity for<br />

individuals living with dementia to<br />

be registered as someone at risk of<br />

going missing. Critical information<br />

collected provides searchers with<br />

quick access to key information to<br />

assist in locating the individual and<br />

returning them home safely.<br />
