Clients enrolled in the program wear a bracelet that contains a battery operated transmitter that emits a radio frequency tracking signal. If the client wanders away, the caregiver notifies the Henry County Sheriff’s Office by calling 911. A Search and Rescue team responds to the client’s area last seen and uses a mobile receiver to pick up the client’s signal, thus locating the person.
