To assist in search and rescue, information about the individual is entered into a secure database. The LoJack ® SafetyNet provides 24/7 emergency caregiver support. For participating public safety agencies receive search and rescue receivers, certified training and ongoing support at no cost. Funding: Currently not covered by Medicaid or insurance. Who has access? Anyone in an area covered by SafetyNet. Benefits: • The waterproof transmitter uses radio frequency technology which works in densely wooded areas, a building or shallow water. Limitations: • In New Jersey, currently only available in Essex County Care Trak Care Trak System is a tracking device with a transmitter worn by the person at risk that is detected by a handheld directional antenna. When the antenna is plugged into the receiver, the radio tracking signal comes in stronger and louder as it gets closer to the person wearing the transmitter.
