  • Via Radiolab's podcast comes a remarkable story of how the Benrath Senior Center in Dusseldorf, Germany, found an alternative solution. The staff there noticed that escaped Alzheimer's patients often head directly to their only exit: Public transportation.
  • So they built a fake bus stop, right in front of the clinic. It works. Seniors trying to escape wander out and settle there---offering the staff a neutral ground to soothe them back inside.
