Scent Kits

For people diagnosed with a memory disorder or family members caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s, Disease, or Autism, the dangers of wandering and getting lost are a major concern. The Alzheimer’s Association states that 60% or 3 out of 5 people with Dementia will wander and go missing. The Scent Preservation Kit® is used to pre-collect and preserve a person’s unique scent ahead of time. This gives responding K-9 Units a head start during the search by providing trailing dogs with an uncontaminated scent article. Your scent is as identifiable as your fingerprint to a trained K-9, and can last up to 10 years in our kit.

SNAP

The primary objective of the Special Needs Alert Program (SNAP) is to provide law enforcement with an additional tool in locating persons who have a firm diagnoses of Dementia/Alzheimer’s or Autism. This is a voluntary program where applicants provide consent to include identifying information such as, physical/psychological description and other valuable information on an application. This information is used to create a unique number which corresponds to that specific individual information on the bracelet. An updated photo is also required for identification. This bracelet does not relieve the caregiver of their responsibilities to the person under their care.
