Elopement and Wandering Your Guide to Safety Resources

PAL (Protection and Locator) Project Lifesaver’s PAL tracking system is both a tracking device and a water resistant digital sports watch. PAL is worn on the wrist just like a normal wrist watch. Along with the digital watch/transmitter, PAL has a portable receiver which notifies the caregiver of a wandering event through the use of GSM and GPS technologies. If an a t -r isk individual wearing a PAL watch/ transmitter breaches the PAL Perimeter, the PAL portable receiver will sound an audible alert and the LCD display will flash red to indicate that the individual has wandered from the established perimeter, such as home or school. PAL will generate an email alert and send an SMS (text message) with the date and location of the wandering event. For the caregiver’s convenience, PAL also has an internet portal available that is accessible worldwide from any PC or smart phone and allows for real time tracking with regular location updates. Additionally, the PAL transmitter/digital watch has a locking feature on the band which can only be removed by using a tool provided with the PAL system. If the caregiver presses the “find” button on the portable receiver, the PAL watch will determine the location of the individual and the address will be displayed on the portable receiver. If the a t r isk individual wearing the PAL watch/transmitter is lost and chooses to push the panic button on PAL watch, the address will be shown on the portable receiver. Both of these events will also update the internet portal and alert emails and/or SMS text message will be sent to the caregiver.
