Project Lifesaver is a service provided by the Newburyport Police Department which utilizes an electronic tracking device to assist in locating at risk individuals. This service helps to provide peace of mind to family members and care givers with loved ones who wander.
Project Lifesaver relies on proven radio technology and specially trained search and rescue teams. Citizens enrolled in the Project Lifesaver program are outfitted with a radio frequency signal that is unique to the client. If an enrolled client goes missing, the caregiver will notify the Newburyport Police Department and a trained emergency team will respond to the wanderer’s area with specialized receivers that will help triangulate the direction of the signal and help locate the client.
Please contact Officer Charles Ferlauto cferlauto@newburyportpolice.
