There is a real Passibility
that u teaching homemaker
will be engaged in Huron
County under the direction of
the Social Services Committee.
Committee Chairman Ervin
Siliery said the three main
duties of t teaching •
homemaker would 'be' to
supervise the individual
homemakers hired by the
Social Servlces Committee on a
contract basis; to be available
for homemaking. on an
emergency basis (for example
nights .'and weekends) ; and to
carry a hom healcg caseload
field
similar to
workers from, Social Services,
specificialy to work with
housewives and mothers in
need' of advice concerning
household budgets and
nutrition and child care.
"In some General Welfare
Assistance cases more is
required than just athand-out of
money," Mr. Sillery's report
.stated. "A teaching
homemaker should be able to
improve the quality of life for
persons receiving long term
.assistance by teaching
budgeting, shopping skills,
meal planning etc. This should
ensure .than the money is being
spent moref all membeand rs of'. .the
or the
benefit
family."
County councillors learned
that a middle-aged person with
plenty of experience in the,
homemaking field plus corn,
mon sense and the all walks �
ability
work with people
life would be the type of person
hired as a teaching
homemaker.
The initial salary :would
depend on past bxperience and
education,and would have to be
in line with the present salary
range for field workers. Should
a teaching homemaker be
hired, the salary and all ex-
penses in connection with the
work would be subsidized by
the Province of . Ontario by 80
percent.
John Tinney, chairman of the
board of management at
Huronview, announced that
June .I5 to 21 is Sehior Citizens'
- Week. Once again, all senior
citizens in Huron are invited to
Huronview to take part in the
