A Canadian study indicates
doctors who practise geriatric
medicine (GM) are going to be in
short supply when baby boomers are
going to need them most, if
something isn't done to address the
shortfall.
Dr. Laura Diachun, geriatric
medicine residency program director
for the Schulich School of Medicine
and Dentistry at The University of
Western Ontario and Dr: Susan
Torrible, lead author and staff
geriatrician with the Windsor
Regional Hospital conducted the
geriatric recruitment issues study
(GRIST). They sdrveyed Canadian
geriatrics, internal medicine
residents and senior medical
students to rate factors that go into
choosing a medical subspecialty.
Their findings and recommendations
for improving GM recruitment, are
published in the September issue of
the Journal of the American
Geriatrics Society.
"Given Canada's current shortage
of geriatricians and extremely low
numbers of students entering
geriatrics, it's essential to
understand how we can better teach
medical students the principles of
elder care," explains Diachun.
"Results from the GRIST study will
play an essential part in developing
effective recruitment strategies
needed to ensure that in the next 15
to 20 years, there is an adequate
number of Canadian physicians
trained in the care of the elderly."
There are currently fewer than 200
geriatricians in Canada, while
estimates put the need at three times
that number. Recruitment strategies
being recommended include
streamlining the training required
ofor geriatric medicine, mentoring
programs, financial incentives and
provincial and national promotional
campaigns.
Southern Huron County will soon
be hearing The Bull loud and clear.
The CRTC has approved a new
transmitter in Bluewater that will
allow for clear reception of CIBU-
FM in the Huron County
communities south of Wingham,
including Goderich, Clinton,
Seaforth and Exeter.
"We are extremely pleased with
the decision," says John Weese,
general manager of CKNX Radio,

The OPP are warning motorists
that this is harvesting season and at
any time while driving on a rural
road, they may encounter an
oversized farm vehicle and to be
cautious.
The Highway Traffic Act
Regulation 603 pertains to over
dimensional farm vehicles.
This regulation clearly states that
every over-dimensional farm vehicle
exceeding a width of 3.8 meters ( 12
.6 feet ) while being driven on a
highway from half hour after sunset
to half hour before sunrise or at any
time where unfavourable
atmospheric conditions or
insufficient light exists shall be
equipped with an illuminated
rotating amber light mounted to the
uppermost part of the vehicle and be
frustrating not being able to provide
the same high level of service to the
area with The Bull that we've been
able to provide to Bruce and Grey
County listeners. Not everyone
could hear the station. This new
transmitter provides a dedicated
signal into the area that listeners can
rely on for news, weather,
entertainment and great rock
music." The Bull is part of the
Wingham-based radio operation
which also includes AM 920 CKNX
and 101.7 The ONE.
discernable from a distance of 150
meters. If not a flashing or rotating
light, they must have escort vehicles
( truck or car ) with flashing lights
on positioned 200 feet in front of and
behind the oversize vehicle.
Ensure that you have all the proper
lighting under the law. A slow
moving vehicle sign is required by
law if you are operating a farm
vehicle on a highway.
It is suggested that at all times
when moving from field to field
along a roadway that the header of
the combine be removed and towed
to the next field.
"Officers will be keeping careful
watch for farm vehicles being
operated on a roadway to ensure that
all laws are being met," said OPP
Const. Jeff Walraven.

driving through harvest season
