Product Description:
Wander alert or perimeter alert systems can alert caregivers when a user navigates to a certain area or leaves a specified boundary.

These systems may be helpful for users who have Alzheimer's, autism, or other conditions.
Main Features:
- Creates a custom, virtual "perimeter" inside the desired area.
- Discrete devices.
- Linked to a 24-hr monitoring service and call center, who alerts a caregiver when the user leaves the area.
