I purchased the Alzheimer's bracelet from DivotiUSA.com with a secure lock clasp that never comes off your wrist. It's crucial for those with memory issues, featuring dual-side engraving with discreet information on the back. This bracelet gives me peace of mind knowing that if my mother wanders, emergency responders can easily identify her and keep her calm.

@jennyc580 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect! Finding a workable product must bring you quite a sense of relief.

I have used Medic Alert Foundation products for several years. Not too long ago, I was enlisted as a volunteer patient for a group of EMS candidates. Not one stopped to look at my bracelet, prominently displayed on my wrist. After finishing the practical training, I gave them a little talk about how that can be a game-changer, also the fact they never asked me my age. As a former 911 dispatcher, any information I could get from first responders prior to the ambulance showing up, was a win-win!

Do you use any tracking type device for your mother, just in case? A friend of mine did that for her husband. Kinda like a LoJack for people.
