According to the Alzheimer’s Association, 6 in 10 people with dementia will wander. A person with dementia may not remember his or her name and can become disoriented or confused for a period of time, even in familiar places. This can happen at any stage of Alzheimer’s and is one of the most dangerous behaviors associated with the disease. It is important to take steps to prevent wandering and know what to do in an emergency.
Learn more about Wandering in the second episode of a ten-episode video series from Alzheimer’s Los Angeles.
