Did you know that 6 out of 10 people with dementia will wander? The Silver Alert Kit is a vital tool to ensure fast access to critical information for emergency services, increasing the chances of a quick and safe return for your loved one. Alzheimer's Tennessee will be at the Library Wednesday, April 30, for a Silver Alert Kit sign-up day. Stop by the library's lobby between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. to learn more and sign up for this life-saving resource. Registration is not required.
About the Silver Alert:
Tennessee’s new Silver Alert Law is now in effect to save lives, and Alzheimer’s Tennessee is encouraging everyone who hears that a Silver Alert has been issued to please be vigilant and watchful for the missing individual.
“Silver Alerts are lifesaving and especially critical to the safety of our Tennessee seniors, if all of us are aware of who is in need of our help to find their way home safely,” Janice Wade-Whitehead, Alzheimer’s Tennessee CEO and President explained. “Alzheimer’s Tennessee is working to help the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) and local law enforcement understand Alzheimer’s and dementia – and how to best support wandering individuals and their families.”
The Library adheres to the Americans with Disabilities Act that assures equal access to all library facilities, activities, and programs. Every attempt will be made to accommodate the needs of persons with disabilities, and the Library welcomes input from persons with disabilities about ways the Library can serve them. Questions about ADA compliance should be addressed to the Library Director.
