(Shelley McPhee photo) CLINTON - After more than two years of development and progress, the speech pathology service offered at Clinton Public Hospital (CPH) is back at square one. The hospital is searching for a new specialist to replace Jennifer Biskup who left the CPH in November. Mrs. Biskup, Clinton's first speech pathologist, chose to advance her career at Parkwood Hospital in London. Her replacement in Clinton has yet to be hired. "We're, quite concerned with the lack of graduates in speech pathology," hospital administrator Dan Steyn said. CPH has beennlooking for a new speech pathologist since 'October 1984. One specialist from Ireland was interviewed and she had the choice between nine differnt job offers. In the Windsor area alone, five positions are available for speech pathologists. Cur- rently in Huron County, one speech pathologist, works out of the Wingham Hospital. Clinton and Goderich hospitals share the services of one speech pathologist, but the programs have suffered serious set backs with the loss of the specialist. u In Clinton between April and October, 1984 the speech pathologist dealt with 435 out- patients and 22 in-hospital patients. Before a full-time position was created, a visiting speech pathologist saw an average of 20 out-patients a month and two in- patients in weekly visits. Mr. Steyn says that the speech pathology program has proved its worth particularly in therapy for school aged children and recovering stroke victims. The CPH speech pathology program is currently at a standstill. Patents are not receiving therapy and their progress could be set back. For children, parents are still able to continue home therapy programs and exercises, but Mr. Steyn pointed out, "without professional help, progress can be hard to measure." He said that the present state of the pro- gram is "a hardship on patients. We hope to eliminate this in the future so that each hospital in Boron county could have its own service." Mr. Steyn is optimistic that within the next few months a new speech pathologist will be hired. . "We are very confident that we will obtain a speech pathologist in May or April when the next class graduates." The hospital has contacted every universi- ty in Canada. Michigan and Ohio, where speech pathology is taught. The position has been advertised nationally and at Cana;.• Manpower. "We're offering one of the higher salaries in the area and we don't think that it's dollars and cents that's creating the gap, it' the availability of people," Mr. Steyn said. The hospital is satisfied with the program, that Mrs. Biskup developed. Mr. Steyn said that the hospital understood her decision to move to Parkwood Hospital where she could specialize in her career interests. Accommodations for the first speech pathology program were established at the ' former nurse's residence, across the street from the hospital. Better facilities are being offered in a renovated area of the hospital complex. . Still, for now, the hospital twist play a waiting game until a new speech pathologist is hired.
