from telegraph.co.uk: a nursing home in germany has figured out how to keep the elderly patients with Alzheimers from running away. pure trickery.
they created a bus stop replica outside the building, so, if 89-yr old greta slips away, the sight of the bus stop will "remind" her that she should wait for the bus to take her home. all the while, the nursing home staff wait for their opportunity to walk by, let greta know that her bus is going to be late today, and offer her to come into the nursing home for coffee.
there are many emotions that come to mind. some of them are sad, but some of them are funny.
