Homemakers will continue home care
The Huron County Board of Health
has decided to continue to purchase
home care services for the county's
elderly, handicapped or disabled
adults from Wingham's Town and
Country Homemakers exclusively un-
til the matter comes up for review
again, despite applications from two
London-based firms to provide
similar services.
Grant Stirling of RR 2, Bayfield,
chain -Ian of both the county Board of
Health and the independent commit-
tee making the recommendation, said
Monday that the decision had been
based on several factors, including
the fact that the Wingham non-profit
organization had pioneered the ser-
vices in the county and had been pro-
viding excellent care since 1979, as
well as the fact that all Town and
Country employees are Huron Coun-
ty residents.
Ile added that using a non-profit

DVBS ends
The Exeter United Church vacation
bible school concluded its summer
program Friday with a presentation
to parents and grandparents.
Bev Robinson, staff associate for
the church and co-ordinator for the bi-
ble school. boasted an attendance of
92 children for this summer's school.
The theme this year was "glory
days" and Friday's presentation
reflected this emphasis in the perfor-
mancesfrom the three groups of
children: the four and five year olds,
the six• seven and eight year olds, and
the nine. ten and eleven year olds.
The parents joined in With the
children's singsong and Robinson
wished the children a happy summer
vacation and invited them all back for
next year.
organization to provide care would
also directly save local ratepayers
money, since the federal government
picks up half the cost of such, care,
whereas the province would be
responsible for the entire cost of a
privately run service. Beth London
companies that submitted proposals
are privately owned.
However, Mr. Stirling said that if in
the future the county should require
more service than Town and Country
can provide, the committee's next
choice would be Para -Med Health
Services. Quality Care Nuring Ser-
vices Ltd. was the third organization
which submitted a proposal ,to the
Board of Health.
As well as Mr. Stirling, the commit-
tee reviewing the proposals consisted
of Betty Cardno, executive director of
the Iluron County Health Unit's Home
Care Program, the county's largest
purchaser of home care services, and
Bill Morely, provincial representative
of the county health board.
This committee made its recom-
mendations to the Board of Health
last Wednesday, and the Board in
turn will recommend the continuing
use of Town and County Homemakers
to County Council, when it meets next
on September 3.
Since the Board'of Health is not a
committee of council, Mr. Stirling
says that making the recommenda-
tion to council is merely a formality,
but one that he feels is important to
a good working relationship between

"If you keep everyone informed of
what you are doing, everyone
benefits," he said.
When the matter of inviting submis-
sions from home care providers first
came up at county council in July, Ex-
eter Reeve Bill Mickle and Deputy -
reeve Lossy Fuller objected to what
they perceived as a duplication of ser-
vices, as well as to the idea of ser-
vices, as well as to the idea of inviting
private firms to compete with the non-
profit Town and Country.
However, County Warden Brian
McBurney said that there is a grow -
Fashion
O
ing demand for home care services
within the county, and that all pro-
posals should be considered in the in-
terests of providing the best possible
service to county residents. Whether
the service was publicly or privately
funded was irrelevant, he said, since
any Huron County resident requiring
care would be granted a subsidy to
pay for it, if one were needed.
At press time, Jean Young, ex-
ecutive director of Town and Country
Homemakers, could not be reached
for comment on he continuing de-
mand for her organization's services
within the county.
