I spoke to a Tara Hildebrand of the AS of  B.C.  she was doing educational sessions for those effected at the Merritt Civic center about 10 people were at a table getting support for a very private and challenging situation ; a member of your family that has Alzheimer disease. She without a moment’s hesitation affirmed that lock down care homes the kind that post an electronic password on the exit doors are safe and the a good choice. A person wandered away from a home in Kamloops one winter and died of exposure.

She was aware also of a card that the federal association issues with a picture of the person suffering on it to present to people when looking for a wandering person.

I our view there can not be enough community support for those that are under this  affliction.
