Patrol Operation Programs

Take Me Home

The TakeMeHome program is a free and voluntary program designed to assist those who have a risk of wandering and/or those who have communication challenges. Participants are added to a database that includes their identifying information, a current picture and caregiver emergency contact information. Patrol officers have nearly instant access to the database in their squads. When officers encounter a program participant and have difficulty communicating with them the officer can query the Take Me Home database, contact their caregiver and get them home safely.
