PLAN FOR CHRONIC
PATIENTS?WING
A campaign, is to ibe launched
shortly with a view to building
a chronic patients’ wing at Wing-
purpose of relieyingi the by^r-
crowding that frequently' finds
the .hospital crammed to the. cor
ridors with twice the number of
patients that the 48-ibed hospital
has accomodation for.
Representatives of the various
'municipalities that send patients
to Winghiaih, met last week to
-hearanddiscusscampaign-plans.
The—group was shown : through
the hospital.
Figures were released of the
campaign contributions by muni.-
bifalities to the building program
in 1946 when an addition was
ibuilt to the hospital, and further
figures revealed the annual
growing admissions by munici
palities since thakt time.
It: is expected that the various
municipalities in the area will
contribute to the» new building
project in that ratio if they /wish
to be assured of accomodation in
the hospital.
Admissions annually 'from 1947
to 1952 inclusive, from the. muni
cipalities in this immediate vicin
ity, are:
