which protects their staff from

did aid in the diagnosis of tuber
culosis. The public hospitals in
Ontario diagnose over 16% of
total admissions to sanatoria.
The Health Unit makes ap
pointments for patients at the
request of the private physician
oi' M.O.H. .Besides filing individ
ual records, it also notifies those
people who require repeat ex
amination of their next appoint
ment. A Health Unit nurse is
present at each clinic to receive
and interview the patients.
As of December 31, 1953,
there were 272 persons' records
in the T.B. file and 1,716 people
represented in the regular chest
clinic records. While a large
number are eventually considered
safe and no longer in need of
special clinic services, it is a
great responsibility foi' the local
health department to make the
future appointments and to regu
larly review the lists, making
note of '‘delinquents’’, “dis
charges”, and those needing extra
supervision.
Family Health
In maternal mortality, Canada
is sixth lowest and follows the
United' States, Denmarks, Eng
land, New Zealand and Holland.
It stands in thirteenth place in
the world for infant mortality
and is excelled by such nations
as New Zealand, Sweden, Iceland
and Australia.
In the promotion of health—
both physical and mental—the
family is the basic unit to be
reached. The general practitioner
is the chief family adviser in
matters of health and a good
proportion of his work might be
termed health education.
Another person who has con
siderable contact with the family
is the public health nurse. She
sees its members not only in the
home, but also at school and
perhaps again at an immuniza
tion or chest clinic. Her social
status, which is traditionally of
the people, gains her willing con
fidence and her professional
background teaches her to
strengthen the doctor-patient re
lationship. By getting the patient
to the doctor, interpreting his in
structions, helping to relieve wor
ry, and explaining personal and
child hygiene, she makes a valu
able contribution to the family’s
well-being.
To promote greater interest in
maternal and family health the
Ontario Department of Health
sponsored a special course for the
public health nurses at Toronto.
This was attended by the Health
Unit's Supervisor of Nursing and
the instruction received there is
being used in a series of confer
ences with the staff nurses. As
an experiment, a gmall prenatal
class was started in Exeter in
1953 following the outlines just
given. This hod a very encourag
ing response and plans are under
consideration for an extension of
this service.
The classes feature a general
presentation of the changes in
pregnancy and childbirth, and
the demonstration of helpful ex
ercise and relaxation. A discus
sion period encourages the mo
thers to “talk-out" their anxie-
