Looking for a reliable GPS tracker for someone living with dementia? The StaySafe Watch offers real-time location tracking, geofencing alerts, and full health monitoring—helping loved ones stay safe, independent, and connected.

If you’re caring for someone living with dementia, you’ve likely experienced the worry that comes with wandering, confusion, or unexpected changes in behaviour. A reliable dementia GPS tracker can offer enormous peace of mind—for both carers and families.

But not all GPS trackers are created equal.

At Safeguard Technologies, we’ve chosen our GPS StaySafe Watch to go far beyond basic location tracking. It’s a fully featured safety device that supports independent living while keeping loved ones connected and protected.

Why Choose a GPS Tracker for Dementia?

Dementia can affect memory, spatial awareness, and judgement, making it difficult for someone to recognise familiar surroundings—even in their own neighbourhood. A dedicated GPS tracker can help locate a person quickly and safely if they become disoriented or go missing.

But the best solutions don’t just track—they communicate, monitor, and alert.

Real-Time Location Tracking

Our GPS StaySafe Watch tracks location in real time, so carers and family members always know where their loved one is. Whether they’re at home, out for a walk, or attending a day centre, the watch keeps you connected.

Geofencing and Safe Zones

You can set Geofencing safe zones—specific areas like “home” or “the local park”—and receive an instant alert if the person leaves that area.

What’s more, we offer timed geofencing, so you can set different safe zones for different times of day (e.g. day centre during the day, home at night). This gives greater flexibility and better reflects the person’s daily routine.

Health Monitoring & Alerts

The StaySafe Watch isn’t just about location—it also keeps an eye on vital health signs:

✔️ Heart rate
✔️ Blood pressure
✔️ Blood oxygen levels (SpO₂)
✔️ Body temperature

You can set custom threshold alerts, so if anything goes above or below a safe range, you’ll be notified straight away. It’s an extra layer of reassurance, especially if the person lives alone or is unable to easily describe how they’re feeling.

Designed for Everyday Use

Worn on the wrist like a regular smartwatch, the StaySafe Watch is discreet, comfortable, and easy to charge. It also includes two-way communication, so the person wearing it can speak directly to a carer or emergency response team with a single button press.

Is This the Right GPS Tracker for My Loved One?

If you’re searching for a dementia GPS tracker that offers more than just a pin on a map, the StaySafe Watch might be exactly what you need. It’s suitable for people in the early to mid stages of dementia and can be a vital part of supporting safe, independent living for longer.
