WanderGuard Departure Alert System

WanderGuard[R] leads the industry with more wanderer departure alert systems in facilities nationwide than any other system. The reasons are clear. WanderGuard products are designed with ease of use, reliability and cost-effectiveness in mind. Residents at risk for wandering wear a 90-day or 12-month signaling device on their wrists that transmits a signal to the WanderGuard unit. When a resident leaves a monitored area, an alarm sounds to alert caregivers that a resident has exited.

The WanderGuard departure alert system can be customized to the needs of each facility. We offer many options from the WanderGuard product line, including WanderGuard locks, the Catch-All[TM] nonselective door alarm, the patented Pre-Alert[TM] remote annunciator and paging to help provide resident security throughout your facility while providing managed freedom for residents. Wanderguard products are backed by the most comprehensive support programs and services, including training, installation, maintenance and ongoing customer support.
