Heart care improves at WDH
by Jim Brown
The Wingham and District
Hospital has acquired an echo
doppler machine with the capability
to perform 2-D, M -Mode, Doppler,
Color Flow studies for both cardiac
and vascular applications.
The machine allows physicians to
visualize the structures of the heart
and the flow of blood around the
heart and .the carotid vessels.
Patients who previously had to
travel to London or Kitchener will
now be able to have this non-
invasive test completed locally.
Interpretation services will be
provided by Dr. Ed Turton, an
No excuse
Grants totalling $415,000 will be
awarded to 47 organizations to fund
programs to help health profes-
sionals become more sensitive to
the needs of battered and sexually
assaulted women. The announ-
cement coincides with Sexual As-
sualt Prevention Month in May.'
A Statistics Canada Survey
released' late last year shows that
over 50 per cent of the women
surveyed had experienced" some
form of violence- since the age of
16. Thirty-nine per cent of the
women reported.that they had been
sexually assaulted.
"When more than half the
.population lives with violence and
Internist with specialized training in
echocardiography. .1 -le says the
hospital will be able to take patients
from the Listowel and' Wingham
areas.
Dr. Turton says the advantage of
having the equipment at the
Wingham hospital is that it keeps
the • patients in their own•
community, where they•had to go to
London 'before. '
He added that the addition of this
equipment will be a boon to the
Wingham Hospital as it will
provide a full -compliment of
services to the community.
Technologist Tony Borges says

the threat of violence, as part of
their everyday reality, were not
talking about a 'women's issue' but
a community problem," says
. Marion Boyd, Ontario Women's.
Director Minister. "A community
problem requires a coordinated
community response."
"The funding will go a long way
to ensure that medical professionals•
are sensitized to the *special con-
cerns and issues faced by the vic-
tims of this crime," says Ruth
Grier, Minister of Health.
The Violence Against Women
Prevention initiatives are a coor-

diagnosis of strokes and heart
attacks.
Hospital chief executive officer
Lloyd Koch says the equipment
cost $116,000 and the hospital
foundation has a. major fund-raising
campaign underway.
"Community supportto date has
been excellent," he said. "Several.
thousand dollars have been received
in the first week.."
A second•fund-raising project will
enable the hospital to complete
renovations to the long-term, care
area, including a sunroom.

three areas: services to victims;
justice; and prevention through
public education.
"Changing attitudes through
public education is the only way we
can ever hope to break the cycle,"
says Boyd. "We want people • to
know that any sexual action without
consent is sexual assualt, and that
women are never to blame for an
assault committed against them.
There is no excuse for this crime.".
In addition, the Ontario Women's
Directorate has awarded grants to
'92 diverse community organizations
for local public education projects
geared to the needs of their, own
communities.
Lightning strikes at MHLS
by David Scott
Weigh scales at the Mid -Huron
Landfill Site (MHLS) may have
been damaged by lightning. Super-
visor Frank Postill reported to the
'MHLS Board at their May 12
meeting that lightning struck the
weigh' scales' at the site during. an
-electrical storm on May 9:
Itseeins the lightning has affected'
the signal ' from the scales to the
computer System. "The scales don't
send a message to the computer,°
now," said Postill.,But the scales at
the site are operational. Scale
operator Ben Mannings . is .inves-
tigating the problem':
Wood chipping Deputation
.The MHLS Board is currently
investigating whether they can use i
wood chip as a cover.at the.landfill,
Steve Sitler of 'S.E:L. Recycling,
Elmira made a presentation to the
MHLS Board at their May 12
meeting: S.E.L. operates recycling
centres in Guelph, Orillia and
Kitchener. Sitter talked about the
wood -chipping machine S.E.L. uses
to process construction/demolition
wood. A magnet sweeps along the
wood being chipped to pull out all
metal, like nails in wooden pallets.
S.E.L. also turns branches or `green
waste' into a mulch product.
Sitter . reported that construction
wood could.. :be used for landfill
cover or' road=building material.
One product that's being sold from
the chips of wooden pallets is a
bedding for animals, said .Sitter.
Board member Lynda •„ Rotteau
from the Town of Goderich, asked
if S.E.L. would Charge for their
services based on the tonne. The
charge would likely be $20-25 per
tonne of wood, said Sider but they
would likely wait until about 200
tonnes of wood had accumulated at
the landfill site before coming to do
the chipping. In answer a° a board
member's question Sitter also men-
tioned that about six other com-
panies in Ontario operate wood -
chipping facilities. '
The MHLS Board will review the.
presentation of S.E.L, Recycling.
Separation of Wood at Site .
After -some discussion: about
separating wood at the landfill site,
the MHLS Board passed a motion
that the Site Supervisor and
operator will encourage carriers, to
separate clean loads of building
material and wood at the site when
they enter.
