MRS. E. D. W. COURTICE
9Corn �yer stone at Hos ital Site
(By W. E. Elliott, in the
La
Stratford Beacon -Herald)
"It has been our objective to
make available to the people
of Ontario the best possible
mental health services," Pre-
mier Leslie Frost said at the
cornerstone ceremony at the
new Ontario Hospital, Wednes-
day afternoon. "I feel we have
gone further in this matter
than any jurisdiction in Amer-
ica, and it is our objective to
keep our program in advance
of or at least equal to the very
best in the world."
"This hospital," Mr. Frost
said, "will be the first to be
constructed under a new policy
in the field of psychiatric treat-
ment. Palmerston and Owen
Sound hospitals are in the same
class. The policy is aimed at
reducing admissions to hos-
pitals by making outpatient
facilities more accessible and
to encourage home treatment
so that family ties may be
maintained, and to facilitate
the rehabilitation of the patient
in familiar surroundings. For
long years we have deplored
the institutional atmosphere of
our hospitals; sometimes the
patient seems to disappear in
the system. Now we emphasize
the preservation of the identity
and personality of the patient,
and Ifrovide every opportunity
to resume daily life and return
to normal society.
Smaller Units
"This can be accomplished
better in the environment of
smaller units, and in future
ours will be functional units of
250 to 300 beds, all dependent
on central administration. I
think our plan envisions here
utak. to provide for perhaps
1,200 patients. There will be
no large mass of patients herd- corning
Plaque Unveiled
ed together. The units will be
joined in a manner attractive
and efficient from the stand-
point of increased services."
Hon. Ray Connell, Minister
of Public Work, mentioned
that the 80 -by -30 marquee shel-
tering the guests housed about
300, the number of patients to
be cared for in the new build-
ing costing about $3,500,000.
He expressed a hope that
"next year at this time we will
have patients and it will be op-
erating at near capacity."
Memorial
There were a few allusions
to the coming retirement of
Mr. Frost as premier, and
Charles MacNaughton, MPP
for Huron, who was chairman
of the gathering, held in a big
marquee, said "it may well be
his last appearance among us
as prime minister of Ontario."
Mr. MacNaughton mentioned
the "program for human het-
terment" over which Mr. Frost
had presided, and said "prob-
ably his greatest memorial will
be the place he has made for
himself in the hearts of those
to whom he has devoted a
quarter of a century of a full,
rich, and abundant life."
The premier and Mrs. Frost,
Health Minister Dymont, Works
Minister Connell, and other
guests, attended a midday
luncheon at Harborite Inn in
Goderich. After the ceremonies
at the new hospital, they drove
to the County Home at Clinton
to inspect a new addition,
which was formally opened on
Friday.
Mr. MacNaughton noticed in
the audience at the hospital the
member for Perth, J. Fred Ed-
wards, and thanked him for
R. W. Johnstone, of Anglin -
Norcross, Limited, general con-
tractors for the,, hospital, pre-
sented a ceremonial trowel to
Premier Frost, who assisted
Mrs, Pryde, widow of the late
member, in laying the corner-
stone. They later unveiled a
plaque, commemorating t h e
occasion, which will be placed
in the administration building
when completed.
Warden Ivan Forsyth said
the new hospital will mean
much in the economic life of
the county and district. In this
connection, Mr. MacNaughton
said it represents a consider-
able increase in investment and
spending in the area. "For
every 100 jobs created by a
project of this kind, another
117 are created in the area. I
am told there are 160 workmen
on this project, so you have
only to translate •that on the
basis I have described, to see
what it means to the commun-
ity."
Rather than halt the work in
fine weathe4, the men carried
on as usual during the cere-
mony, but the drive from the
highway was new , scraped
and flag -decorated, and ample
parking was provided.
'We of Goderich Township
are very appreciative of the
honor bestowed upon us by
having this hospital located in
our community," said Reeve
Forbes. "We know that the
residents who occupy these
buildings when completed will
receive the utmost care and
consideration from the authori-
ties and attendants. We in turn
will endeavor to see that staff
and residents are well cared
for. We appreciate the work of
the late Tom Pryde, Mr. Mac -
Naughton and Mr. Hanna, who
had a hand in bringing the hos-
pital to this area."
Mayor Fisher said that the
occasion marked the climax of
several years' planning. He
quoted Premier Frost as say-
ing on May 8, 1958, at Goderich
Collegiate Institute that "every
effort will be made to give you
a hospital in Huron, and
Mrs. Pryde will lay the corner-
stone." That, said the mayor,
"has come true, and it makes
me happy, and I am sure it
makes the, premier happy." On
behalf of Goderich citizens, he
wished Mr, and Mrs. Frost
success and happiness for
many years to come."
21st Hospital
"It is a great pleasure to me
to see one More hospital built,"
said Health Minister Dymond,
"for those of our citizens
mentally disordered — and it
may happen to anyone, This
will be the 21st, and something
like 28,000 beds, For every bed
occupied in this province by
one physically disabled, we al-
most have to have one for a
mentally disabled person. Not
that it is on the increase; these
are world-wide statistics and
we are a part."
In a tribute to the late Tom
Pryde, Dr. Dymond said that
"unfortunately he did not see
even in the hole in the ground,
hut you appointed another man
who has carried on in the same
untiring way. He nagged me
until the Minister of Public
Works called for tenders. We
want to be part of your com-
munity and prove to you we
are good neighbors."
A native of McKillop Town-
ship, Mrs. E. D. W. Courtice
