This is very common for psyche wards.

Memory wards, not psyche wards. Important difference.

A psychiatric patient would be able to read and understand the sign, and could then easily escape. A patient with Alzheimer’s or other advanced dementia cannot.

(Source: I spent a few days in a psychiatric ward when I was younger and depressed, and have had multiple grandparents on memory floors at nursing homes.)
