Vulnerable Person Registry

The Vulnerable Person Registry is a voluntary program offered by the Strathroy-Caradoc Police Service to help keep vulnerable members of our community safe.

This registry allows family members and caregivers to share important information—such as emergency contacts, a recent photo, medical needs, daily routines, and communication considerations—with the Woodstock Police Service. Having this information readily available helps officers respond quickly and effectively in the event of an emergency or missing person situation.

If your loved one is living with dementia, additional support is available through the Alzheimer Society of London and Middlesex.

Who is a Vulnerable Person?

A vulnerable person is someone who, because of a medical, mental health, or physical condition, may display behaviours that put themselves or others at risk. Examples include:

Wandering or becoming disoriented
Difficulty communicating
Fixations or attractions (e.g., water, vehicles, construction sites)
Unusual social responses such as fear of strangers or aggression

Individuals who may benefit from registration include those living with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Acquired Brain Injury, dementia, or other conditions that affect communication, awareness, or behaviour.

Why Register?

When officers have access to accurate and timely information—like a photo, physical description, and caregiver contact details—it can make a critical difference during emergencies. The registry helps first responders identify and assist vulnerable individuals quickly and safely.
