Answer

What should families do if an older relative goes missing in Mallorca?

If an older relative cannot be reached, families should check likely places first, then contact the police, hospitals, and any support organisations that handle missing-person alerts. It also helps to know who the person last spoke to and whether they have changed phone numbers, routines, or documents. In Mallorca, older people can be harder to locate quickly if they live alone or do not use a mobile phone.
