Nassau County New Silver Alert System
The Silver Alert Program has been established in order to disseminate immediate information to local media, hospitals and other organizations when a senior citizen or other individuals suffering from Alzheimer’s disease, dementia or other cognitive disorders.
“There are approximately 25,347 senior citizens in Nassau County that are afflicted with Alzheimer’s disease, dementia and other cognitive disorders,” said County Executive Suozzi. “The Silver Alert Program, which is similar in nature to the Amber Alert System, will be very helpful in locating these ‘At Risk Individuals’ and reuniting them safely with their loved ones. I thank Legislators Wink and Jacobs for this legislation.”
“Here at the Nassau County Police Department we have compiled an e-mail list that contains the addresses of media personnel, various law enforcement agencies, business organizations and more,” said Commissioner Mulvey. “If an ‘At Risk Individual’ is deemed missing we will send out a Silver Alert notification immediately to our Silver Alert e-mail list, and will include the missing persons name, age, physical description, the last location the person was seen and a description of any motor vehicle the missing individual may have been driving.” If available, a photo of the missing person. (If a photo is not available at the time of the alert, one will be sent when it is received)
