Fake bus stop keeps people from escaping nursing home

Stamped: 1:14 AM

As linked on boingboing, there's this nursing home where the average age is 84 and the residents have memory problems. To help keep people from escaping, they built a fake bus stop that escapers will stop at (and no bus will ever come)
“We will approach them and say that the bus is coming later today and invite them in to the home for a coffee,” said Mr Neureither. “Five minutes later they have completely forgotten they wanted to leave.”
