“For seniors, we certainly want to work with the local officials, the police, look at first responders, perhaps talk to the coroner, talk to other government officials, long-term care providers, the Alzheimer’s Society and find perhaps a different kind of approach that would better equip the public to help respond and help find that missing person as soon as possible.”
