As an ascendancy of the aging of the world population, society and governments must confront big challenges regarding people\'s health. In early years, researches have been interested in investigating how the technology can be used to amend the healthcare and assistance of patients with dementia, as the Alzheimer\'s disease. In this paper, we propose an un-intrusive comprehensive model to help patients with dementia, based on the utilization of a wireless sensor network. Using high accessibility and cheap binary sensors, the proposed model is able to determine in real-time the location of a patient, and to emit alerts if one leaves a safe location without superintendence.
