An example of police placebo is when law enforcement increases visible patrols in a neighborhood to deter crime, even if actual crime rates do not change. This heightened presence may create a perception of safety among residents, leading them to feel more secure, even if the actual risk of crime remains the same. The psychological effect of seeing police officers can influence community behavior and attitudes towards safety, regardless of the effectiveness of the patrols themselves.

What types of placebo medications are there for someone with alzheimers?

If it's a placebo it is by definition very unlikely to work if the patient is aware it's a placebo. Prescribing a placebo to an unaware patient would be unethical (at least under UK guidelines) Additionally the benefits of a placebo in a condition where the pathology of the disease has few emotional components are likely to be limited. Placebos tend only to work on conditions with an "emotive" component; that is some form of downwards regulatory pathway from higher centres which can be activated to supress symptoms. For example perception of pain has a large higher control component (via the peri-aqueductal grey matter) which can be activated by placebo analgesics.
