The natural history or evolution of Alzheimer's disease is such that individuals, over time, will lose their mental capacities. Examples include, forgetting one's address and not being able to recognize familiar places... The problem of wandering is a daily reality and fear for anyone taking care of someone suffering from a cognitive impairment. It is a source of constant distress and leads to premature institutionalization. The family taking care of a member stricken by Alzheimer's disease often refuses to go out in order to avoid any mishaps. This is a source of constant psychological burden as well as a hindrance to a normal social life. Ideally, Alzheimer's disease should not negatively affect the life of a relative. The human and economic cost can become enormous.

It is estimated that 60% of the persons suffering from Alzheimer's disease are subject to involuntary wandering.

Where are those who wandered found?

Nine out 10 people are localized at 2 miles beyond their residence on average. He/she is found near a road, in a ditch or in the neighboring countryside which complicates the quest to find these individuals when reported lost.

How do those who wander behave?

• Usually, they neither cry for help scream nor answer when someone calls for them, which makes locating them more difficult.
• They often try to reach the same place.
• Those who have already wandered away are more likely to do so again.

Who's at risk?

• Everyone is at risk for wandering. However, a person may be at risk for wandering if he or she:
• Returns from a regular walk or drive later than usual
• Tries to fulfill former obligations, such as going to work
• Tries or wants to "go home" even when at home
• Is restless, paces or makes repetitive movements
• Has difficulty locating familiar places like the bathroom, bedroom or dining room
• Checks the whereabouts of familiar people
• Acts as if doing a hobby or chore, but nothing gets done (moves around pots and dirt without actually planting anything)
• Appears lost in a new or changed environment

Causes

• Wandering can be caused by several factors, including:
• Medication side effects
• Stress
• Confusion related to time
• Restlessness
• Agitation
• Anxiety
• Inability to recognize familiar people, places and objects
• Fear arising from the misinterpretation of sights and sounds
• Desire to fulfill former obligations, such as going to work or looking after a child

Tips to reduce wandering

• Ensure all basic needs are met (toileting, nutrition, thirst)
• Involve the person in daily activities, such as folding laundry or preparing dinner
• Place color-matching cloth over doorknobs to camouflage
• Redirect pacing or restless behavior
