Past chief EXETER - Dr. Debby Waters, 1987-88 chief of medical staff of South Huron (hospital), left for Saskatoon with very mixed feel- ings last week. Shc anticipates making new friends in a new envi- ronment while her husband Ed. takes a two-year animal pathology -course, but she is saying goodbye to five years of living in Lucan and practicing medicine in Exeter in partnership with Dr. Linda Steele. But fair is fair, as Dr. Waters ex- plains. "Ed supported me through medical school, now I will support what he wants to do." Dr. Waters came to medicine by an indirect route. The Newbury native first received her Bachelor of Nursing Science from UWO. Thinking she would like to teach, she was soon back to earn her Masters in Nursing Education, onlydiscover that more academic qualifications meant greater dis- tance from patients. of staff heads west -Waters will never forget 1975. She applied to medical school, she got married, and she gave birth to her first child. She is very grateful for McMaster's "exceptional" medi- cal school, which offers a flexible schedule to mature students who already have a degree: At the end of the second year, it was a toss-up whether or not she would have her second child before she wrote her exams. Shc managed to do both. The last year was spent in Lon- don, followed by two more years to specialize in family medicine. Here she first met Dr. -Steele. When Steele needed someone to cover for her maternity leave, she immediately thought of her friend, Debby who was now living in Lu= can. Dr. Waters is particularly proud that she was chief of staff during South Huron's accredition year, and that the hospital earned the highest category (a three-year certificate). Dr. Waters. is quick to praise the more personal 'attention a small hospital like Exeter's can offer. In a city, most family doctors do not have admitting privileges, and must fight to get a bed for a pa- tient: Here, if everything gets too muchfor someone with lung can- cer, for example, that person can be .admitted for a few daysto re- Iicvc some of his symptoms. Or a patient canbe given a bed if neces- sary and "worked up" at a leisurely pace. For Waters, the greatest reward in medicine is "knowing you made a difference". The only times she re- grets the long, hard years of work and study that earned her an MD are "when the phone rings at 3 a.m." Waters is not saying a final good- bye to her friends in Lucan and Ex- eter. if things work out, she may be back. Foster Parents want more money TORONTO The recent press re- lease by the Ontario Ministry of Communityand social services re- garding foster parent rate increases . is totally misleading. COMSOC says that regular rates to foster parents will go up 6.8 percent. to 523.69 per day. In fact, there is an automatic cost of living increase of 4.5 percent, so the Ministry has simply added an extra Mortifee at LONDON - It is with great ex- citement that the Grand Theatre crew ready the stage for one of Canada's most unique and outstand- ing performing Artists.

The foster parents will only re- -ceive a SIto S1.50 per day in- crease to their current daily rates of between SI 1.51 to S16.03 per day, - with the balance of the money a di- • rect cost of the agency's (Children's Aid..

FAMILIES WELCOME ONE OFFER PER•FAMILY STEDM.ANS 309 Main St., Exeter FRI. SAT. July 22 July 23 10-8 10-5 Foster parents have been meeting -with Ministry staff and with politi- cians for several months to stress the inequities in payments to them compared with payments made by the government to private foster fa- cilities and daycare providers. Daycare providers currently re- ceive between S25 and 530 per day for eight-hour care of children. CAS foster parents receive as little as S11.5.1 for 24-hour care. When CAS has to place children in private foster care operations, the cost to the agency is $60 to S80 per day. Foster parents in these private programs are paid $30 to $40 per day, while our foster parents receive less than half that amount for exactly the same ser- vice. This is unfair and unjust. We arc simply asking for equal pay for equal work", says a Children Aid Society official.' ¶xLeter tii(la EXETER - Hello from the resi- dents of the Villa. The summer is slipping away.
