I'm working this project where this retirement community has reached out to us to ask for our help with some of their residents that suffer dementia. They would want us to find some way to track patients who have dementia and tend to wander around at night. What we've been asked to do is to find a way to track these residents at night, but making the device we would give the residents discrete enough so they wouldn't want to take it off (for example, if its too big or bulky).
Is there any technology currently on the market we can use to track these residents? Since they wander at night, they likely will not have their phone on them. We looked at Fitbits (most residents wear Fitbits) but it seems like there is no way of tracking its live location. The key to this problem is that has to be some form of wearable (that would be comfortable enough to wear) that can be tracked remotely, if necessary. Any leads or help at all would be very much appreciated!
