Vulnerable Persons Registry
The Chatham-Kent Police are reminding citizens of the value of the Vulnerable Persons Registry.
The registry is an online tool that allows caregivers and family members to submit vital information to the police if they feel that someone under their care is at risk due to a physical, medical, or mental health condition. In the event of an emergency, police will have quick access to this vital information allowing officers to respond quickly and effectively.
The registry provides critical information such as a person’s physical description, routines, medical or special needs, and emergency contact information. Families and caregivers are also encouraged to submit a digital photo, should their loved one get lost or go missing.
