Working in connection with hospitals in Clinton and Goderich, Jennifer has been offering her services as a speech pathologist for the past year. Prior to Jennifer's aplntanent last April, the Clinton hospital had been temporarily serviced by a speech pathologist from the Wingham and District Hospital. Realizing there was an evident need for a full time therapist, Jennifer was hired. Working three days out of office space provided in the former Nurses' Residence in Clinton and two days in Goderich, Jennifer sees nine to 12 patients each day. She also has a waiting list of two to three months. Jennifer admits that the help from a second pathologist would eliminate the waiting list. She realizes however that her department is only beginning to develop and it will be some time before it has ex- panded into a two -person operation. The steadily increasing workload doesn't trouble Jennifer. She explained, "What's good is that doctors are actually starting to refer patients." Referrals to the speech pathology department come from local doctors and public health nurses. Patients range in age from pre-school children to senior citizens, however Jennifer's present caseload is primarily made up of youngsters. She plans to do more work with adults, particularly stroke victims, and hopes to conduct evaluations at Huronview. Jen- nifer believes that there is a need for more speech therapy work with stroke vicuna, explaining that therapy should begin as soon as patients are physically able. All speech therapy begins with a referral and assessment of the problem. Speech, hearing, and language skills are all tested, muscles and fluency in the voice are also examined. Half-hour therapy sessions for e.: ch patient are held on a weekly basis, although Jennifer feels that patients should be seen two or three times a week. Time limitations are supplemented by extra at-home therapy. The family becomes involved here, encouraging regular practice. Jennifer noted, "Parents are so appreciative that there is someone to help." "Recovery doesn't happen overnight," she stressed, but noted that adults who have had strokes or disabling accidents often make quicker progress. They work harder, she explained, in their efforts to regain the full speech control they camel had. In her role as speech pathologist, Jen- nifer believes, "Patience and perception are what you need for the work." Jennifer trained in her home state, Michigan, with four years undergraduate and two years masters studies. Finding few jobs available in Detroit, she accepted the challenge offered by the Clinton Public and Alexandra Marine and General Hospital. In little over a year she has developed and implemented a full scale speech therapy program. Services such as this are now giving local people advanced medical help that only a few years ago was only available at In mope- urban centres. County council members may look like "penguins" Grey has been adopted as the color of county blazers to be sported by Huron County councillors. Despite some objection from Howick Township Reeve Bill Newton that coun- cillors will look like "penguins" wearing similar suits, the majority of council agreed to go ahead with adopting grey as the color of the blazers. But Reeve Newton and others sharing his sentiment won't be forced to wear something they don't want to. The pur- chase of the jackets is optional and at the individual councillors expense. During discussion on the blazers at coun- ty council's June session, Exeter Deputy Reeve Lossy Fuller was about to rise and question what the female councillors would wear when clerk -treasurer William Hanly stated that grey cloth could be pur- chased by the women. The blazers are to be purchased from Campbell's Men's Wear of Clinton at a cost of $110 for regular sizes. Grey was chosen as it will co-ordinate well with any color of pants. maxell TEAC.
