Time to let him carry a GPS tracker and/or install one on his phone.

Think with dementia, the process is more troublesome. Not that straightforward, as they deem that the person is not able to make that decision on own.

yar , LPA need doc certified that the person is able to make the decision to appoint the LPA .

He doesn’t have dementia yet but he has fainting spells, he knows he’s tagged no worries

It can detect fainting? If not, how does that help with elderly?

Yes it happens my grandpa ever did that.
he forgot where he is after going out at 1pm.
Sat at the mrt station to figure out where he stays.
He remembers at 9pm and took the mrt home.

MRT station and Bus interchange is a Dementia Go-To Points.

So it would be good to train persons living with dementia to approach the staff for assistance when getting lost.

Staff undergo training to recognise and support individuals who suffer from dementia. They are equipped to ensure the well-being and safety of these individuals, while making their best efforts to reunite them with their caregivers and loved ones.

May be you can write your address and put it in his wallet or use a lanyard card holder.
