HomeMy WebLinkAboutClinton News-Record, 1960-11-24, Page 2Consider Meat
The board considered the pos-
sibilities of savings in buying
meat by the quarter, rather
than in smaller, quantities, and
the superintendent Miss Hilda
Smith was Instructed to get
prices at the various butche
shops in the area, and present
them at the next board meet-
ing.
The suggestion was made
that the Londesboro store
Should be included in the shar-
ing arrangements with on
month's meat being bough
from each butcher shop i
turn. Advised that 'Burto
Stanley would be operating hi
butcher shop ;again by Decem-
ber 1, the board agreed tha t
he be given his turn in th
schedule of purchases.
The hospital rents a large
locker from Clinton Locker
Service to store fresh fruits
frozen in season, and any sur-
plus of fowl or meat which is
purchased in quantity.
The question of government
inspected meats was raised.
Goderieh butcher shops have
arrangements for inspections,
which are carried out by Dr.
George S. Elliott, Clinton.
Aowever, no such arrangement
exists in Clinton.
Personnel
Chairman of the staff com-
mittee, G. Morley Counter, re-
ported on the need for a part
time secretary to take the place
of Mrs. Roach, who is leaving
(her husband posted to Ger-
many), and advertisement for
this position will be placed.
A new personnel policy will
go into effect on January 1,
and will include a sick leave
pay arrangement at the rate of
12 days per year, with the un-
used portion to be paid at the
rate of 50 percent at the end
of each year. Also, starting at
the first of the year, the On-
tario Hospital Commission will
pay half of the single rate for
hospitalization for each insured
employee.
Mrs. E. Beecher Menzies re-
ported for the Hospital Aux-.
Mary.
The board authorized the
purchase of an aluminum truck
to move laundry and supplies
about the hospital. Cost was
$119.50.
Mrs. Lillian McKinnon is en-
gaged in compiling a history of
Clinton Public Hospital since
its beginning, with a view to
having it printed in booklet
form at some future date.
The next regular meeting of
the board will be on Decem-
ber 19.
Councillor Donald Symons
asked for clarification of a ques-
tion raised in council meeting
last week: "Why are we not
training nurses aides?" The
answer given is that the Clin-
ton hospital is not allowed to.
