Wanderer Watchers - Dementia Care Network
Watchful Hearts, Caring Hands
At AS Watson, we understand the growing concern surrounding missing elderly individuals, especially those with dementia. Our Wanderer Watchers campaign, symbolised by our mascot Brainy, is dedicated to addressing this issue in Hong Kong. With a network of over 500 stores - Watsons, PARKnSHOP, FORTRESS, and Watson’s Wine - we serve as vital detection points of lost elders within the community.
By integrating the Dementia Angel App on our mobile devices in our store network, we aim to help locate lost elders, providing peace of mind to families and caregivers in collaboration with the Jockey Club Centre for Positive Aging. Our commitment extends beyond technology; we offer training for store staff, organise community activities for dementia patients and their caregivers, and collaborate with NGOs on projects to create a Dementia Care Network to ensure that no one is left behind.
Join us in creating a supportive environment for dementia patients and their families, as we strive to be the caring presence they need.
