When a Dementia Senior Walked Out the Main Gate at Noon: How Snehito's Geofenced Alert Located Him in 18 Minutes

Key Case Summary
Sun glare, disorientation, and speeding traffic make dementia wandering in Kerala towns extremely hazardous. How automated perimeter alerts and rapid companion dispatch located an 86-year-old grandfather safely before he reached the MC Road highway.
Dementia-related wandering poses an acute safety risk in Kerala towns, where winding lanes quickly open onto high-speed state highways and open wells. For 86-year-old Mathew, who suffered from moderate Alzheimer's disease, wandering episodes were becoming frequent.
Equipped with Snehito's geofenced smart medallion, an automated alert triggered when Mathew exited his courtyard gate and walked toward the busy MC Road in Changanassery. Snehito's regional coordinator immediately dispatched the nearest local companion, who intercepted the senior just 200 metres from his gate, safely redirecting him home before any harm occurred.
