People enrolled in Project Lifesaver wear a small transmitter on the wrist or ankle that emits an individualized frequency signal.

If an enrolled client goes missing, the caregiver notifies their local Project Lifesaver agency, and a trained emergency team responds to the wanderer’s area. The first responders will then use the client’s individualized frequency to locate the position of the individual.
