Wayward Alzheimer's patients foiled by fake bus stop - Telegraph
A german elderly care home uses a fake bus stop (donated my the local transportation agency) to trap alzheimer's patients that are trying to escape the care facility and head to their old homes.<br />

The facility allows them to stand out there for a short while until they've either forgotten about wanting to leave or are willing to be invited in for tea and coffee while waiting for the bus.
