No immediate
says hospital
No consideration is being given
to an immediate increase in rates.
• at Wingham and District Hos-
pital, • Board Chairman J. T.
Goodall advised The Advance -
Times Tuesday. He had been ask-
ed to comment on a study com-
missioned by the Ontario Hos-
pital Association which indicates
hospital costs generally will rise
an estimated eight per cent. •
The study was made by the To-
ronto firm of Woods, Gordon. and
Company and warns that hos-
pitals starting new programs or
,expecting a large increase in ad'-
` missions will be forced to exceed
this "minimal inrease" of eight
per cent.
Such an increase would raise
the gross, operating costs of hos-
pitals in Ontario to about $975
million, up from an estimated
$900 million this year.
Health Minister Richard Potter
stated in,an interview' Monday
that he 'ould be • "very reluct-
ant" to accept the eight per cent
figure. The Ontario government
does not intend to increase health
' care premiums.
Yearly Budget
On the local. situation, Mr.
Goodall ,pointed out that Wing -
ham and District hospital is and
has been operated ,on an annual
budget system and no sudden
change would be made in any
event.
He • said the hospital board is
aware of the costs -versus -rates

safe check reveals
Nine out of 10 drivers were
shocked to learn Monday after-
noon that their vehicles were not
roadworthy for some mechanical
defect or other, which would re-
quire repairs before being pro-
nounced fully safe. That was the
result .of the safety check con-
ducted here by a crew from the
provincial department of trans-
port when they set up by the ball
park, just off Josephine Street.
With the co-operation of Wing -
ham police, including Cpl. Ron
Zimmer and Const. Doug Foxton,
the crew handled 50 vehicles
from the time of setting up after
lunch until quitting time at five.
Only five of the 50 got cleared and
the others were issued forms for
repairs , ithin 10 days. One vehi-
cle was ". s ged unrepairable and
banished from the road alto-
gether, with the plates removed.
The unit is in charge of Inspec-
tor Phil Speak of Woodstock and
is crewed by Murray Bremner. of
RR 3, Brussels, Bill Roberts of
Brantford, Dave Cowan of Tot-
tenham and Mike Bannon of Sea -
forth.

operation for several days at Lis-
-towel, and where it will be next is

This is the reply he received
from M. H. Sealy, regional traffic
superintendent: .
"Last year, it was brought to
our attention that this assembly
was in dire need of repair's, but a
subsequent intersection study in
the summer revealed that the
traffic conditions at this location
no longer warranted an overhead
flasher. Therefore, instead of
making expensive repairs on an
unwarranted assembly, we
decided to remove it altogether."

The Ontario Hospital Associa-
tion, in a publication, "Hospital
News" issued at Wingham and
District Hospital to patients and
visitors,,, includes some tips on
how to help keephospital costs
down, under the heading "Ten
Ways to Help a Hospital": ' •
For Patients '
"As a patient --follow your doc-
tor's or nurse's instructions as
closely as possible without argu-
ment ; come- . to hospital pre- '
pared; bring the papers and in-
surance numbers you need and as
little else as posibie; don't make
a nuisance of yourself with your
radio, TV; telephone or visitors,
other patients may be sicker than
you are; a hospital is not a hotel'
and nurses are not bell hops. Be
reasonable in . your demands;
don't hog the bed on your dis-
charge day. Otherpaients may
be waiting.
`Asa member of the com-
munity—when visiting the hos-
pital remember visits are to be
enjoyed, not endured. Your finan-
cial and public support is wel-
come. Talk -up your community
hospital. Ask the Auxiliary how
you can help and if possible be-
come a volunteer. Supportthe
board of trustees of the hospital
in the most positive possible
manner. Keep as healthy as pos-
sible and prevent accidents to
yourself or others, so you and
they can keep out of your com-
.r tunity hospital." - ,
