ing criticism that Brussels was too
far from emergency services, she
said Huronview officials had told
her that only once in 15 years was
emergency medical attention re
quired. As for not being as close as
the Wingham site to a hospital, she
said the Brussels site offered
residents the chance to go to one of
four hospitals of their choice within
a short drive. Reeve Fraser also
rose to support the motion.
Turnberry Reeve Brian McBur-
ney said that though people were
saying the Callander Home in
Brussels would be closing and
moving to Wingham, he still hadn’t
had that personally confirmed by
Mr. MacGov/an.
Exeter Reeve Bill Mickle and
Deputy Reeve Lossy Fuller who
had been promoting a set of criteria
they felt should be used in site
selection rose to say they had
received answers from both the
Wingham-Turnberry and Brussels,
Morris and Grey committees and
would be basing their decision on
those criteria. (Both voted against
the Brussels site).
Wingham Reeve Bruce Machan
wondered about the barn on the
Turnbull property and whether it
would be used for livestock.
In general, though, the discus
sion was muted and as the voting
began the pendulum seemed to
swing first toward a “no” vote,
then toward the “yes” and then
back again. Voting in favour of the
recommendation to build Huron
view North at Brussels were:
Howard Armstrong, Reeve of Stan
ley; Leona Armstrong, Grey;
George Cantelon, Tuckersmith;
Bee Cooke, Clinton; John Doherty,
Deputy-reeve, Goderich; Norm
Fairies, Howick; Robert Fisher,
Zurich; Doug Fraser, Morris;
Marie Hicknell, McKillop; Dave
Johnston, Reeve of Bayfield and

votes.
Voting against the Brussels site
were: Gerry Baker, Stephen De
puty-reeve; Bill Bennett, Seaforth;

In the short-run the new Huron
view unit, which is expected to be
under construction next summer,
will have little direct economic
impact on the Brussels area. Work
ers currently employed at the
Clinton site will be offered the
opportunity to work at the Brussels
site if they are not required in the
new, smaller 143-bed Huronview
being built at Clinton. In the long
term, however, as vacancies be
come available, more people from
the area may be employed, local
officials hope.
But for Brussels-area officials
there was a sense of jubilation.
Keith Mulvey of the Brussels
Industrial Committee which head
ed up the joint effort of the three
municipalities, said the work had
begun in July to make the presen
tation.
Hugh Hanly, Brussels clerk
treasurer said “It’s been a long
struggle but it’s finally over.”

4H club discusses cookware
BY JULIE ELSTON
The fourth and fifth meetings of
Good Foods Fast 4H club in
Belgrave was held on Monday,
October 23 in the W.I. Hall,
Belgrave with 10 members present.
The Micro Maniacs started their
meetings as usual with the 4H
pledge. They talked about testing
microwave hot spots, a glossary of
microwave cooking terms, how to
arrange foods in the microwave,
and great coverups. They discuss
ed their answers for their home
activities and roll call. They made
two different kinds of s’mores for
meeting four. They both were
CHSS music program
gets bd’s. top priority
The problem with the music
program at Central Huron Secon
dary School was given number one
priority at a meeting of the Huron
County Board of Education meet
ing on November 6.
For some time, now, the present
music room has proven to be
inefficient, flooding several times
which causes extensive damage.
In a report given by the Manage
ment Committee it was stated that
the best solution would be a
long-term approach incorporating
the special needs involved in the
program and contributing at the
same time to additional consolida
tion of the tech program at CHSS.
Trustee Audry McClellan voiced
some concern over the definition of
long term, asking for establishment
of some kind as to what “we are
looking at there in length of time.”

HEALTH ON THE HILL-
A Review of activities at
SEAFORTH COMMUNITY HOSPITAL
After a brief respiteover an extremely busy summer, the staff and board members will continue to
provide you with past and upcoming events occurring in your hospital through this column.
ACCREDITATION: Seaforth Community Hospital recently underwent an Accreditation Review.
The accreditation program is voluntary, independent of government agencies and organized and
administered by health care professionals. It is a process of peer review carried out by senior health
professionals from a variety of disciplines. The ultimategoal of the program is the achievement of the
accredited status by all health care facilities through compliance with standards, in the belief that
such compliance enhances health care in Canada. On Oct. 2 & 3, a Doctor and Director of Nursing
from British Columbia surveyed our Facility to evaluate our compliance to the standards and our level
of quality of care. Although our results will not be known for a number of months we are very hopeful
of receiving a two or three year award. By undergoing these reviews, clearly the greatest benefactor
will be the patients who are serviced by our health care facility.
CONTINUING EDUCATION: One of the standards that we must meet in the Accreditation Review is
the necessity to participate and provide continuing education for all staff members. The^annual
Ontario Hospital Association convention is one opportunity to meet that obligation. The theme this
year is “The Spirit of Health”, and several staff and board members will be attending seminars for
the various disciplines this week.
RIBBON CUTTING CEREMONY: Circle your calendar for Saturday, November 25, at 2:00 p.m. The
Official Ribbon Cutting Ceremony of the emergency expansion and hospital renovations will
officially take place. Come and see what has been accomplished. As one patient putlt - “It looks I ike a
big city hospital now, but still has the heart of a small hospital”.
ACTIVATION NEWS: M. M. Nash, Activation Co-ordinator will attend a seminar in Tavistock on
Mental Aerobics. The theme is “It’s Never Too Late To Stimulate”. A Halloween party is being
planned for the patients on October 31. f
WELCOME - NEW STAFF MEMBERS ARE: Audrey Schenk, Housekeeping Department; Lorraine
Noakes, Dietary Department; Janice Cairns, Dietary Department; Jennifer Hugill, Dietary
Department.
We also look forward to the arrival of our new doctor in November, Dr. Al Haines.
really good.
They then started meeting five
by talking about cookware for the
microwave oven, microwave dish
test, and a microwave cookware
and utensils guide. They discuss
ed: defrosting; reheating; Oops
what went wrong?; Are micro
waves safe?; But extra precau
tions don’t hurt do they?; and how
to keep microwave ovens clean.
They made bunvyches (buns
with sandwich toppings) for meet
ing five. They were really good.
They then discussed their home
activities and closed the meeting
with the 4H motto.
Paul Carroll, Superintendent of
Operations stated “It is the direc
tion of the Board to put the music
program at the top. It has been
looked at and it has been consider
ed financially ' for an immediate
solution hoped for in fiscal year
1990.”
The concept generally supported
by the committee is the relocation
of the music program to the
existing building tech shop and the
relocation of the wood shop to the
tech wing. This involves the re-con-
figuration of existing space and the
construction of a room next to the
auto shop.
A special grant is being consid
ered for the incorporation of the
wood shop along with other chang
es planned for the tech wing to
bring it to new curriculum require
ments.
