Project lifesaver clients wear a "watch-type" wristband transmitter (worn on the wrist, ankle, or as a necklace), which emits a tracking signal. When a caregiver calls the suffolk county sheriff's office project lifesaver line to report that a client has wandered, a specially trained search team responds to the wanderer's area and, while enroute, activates their vehicle's mobile locator tracking system. A hand-held unit is used to search for clients in areas inaccessible by vehicles.
