He the asked the Auxiliary to consider the pur- chase of a portable dental unit that could be moved ,anywhere in the hospital, and pa- tients' dental needs be attended to at the bedside. This equipment also has certainn ental hand pieces that are presently non-existent in Clinton Public Hospital. The cost of this portable unit is approximately $5,000. The members were greatly interested but confirined that they must service their com- mitment to the new obstetrical wing before accepting any new projects. The Hospital Prayer was read in unison. President Joyce Chilton mentioned the ex- citement and enthusiasm created by the opening of the new gift shop. • • " Convenor Evelyn Holmes and her com- mittee have worked diligently to organize and stock this large ' airy and nicely decorated room. A letter of appreciation is to be sent to the maintenance staff, thanking them for the extra time and effort they put into the panting, papering, and "nailing" in renovating this area of the hospital. A work party was held at the home of Marg Conven- try to make Christmas arrangements. To commemorate the opening, articles will be specially priced on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Volunteers will find it a delight to work in these new premises. It is the hope of the committee that if enough^ people volunteer their time, the shop could also be open during evening visiting hours. May Conventry reported on the T.V. ren- tals. The new colored sets are popular but more volunteers are needed twice a week as some of the regulars have toddled off to a sunnier climate. Marilyn Fraser read the correspondence. The Public Relations committee of HAA of Ontario home prepared and sent out infor- mative pamphlets on the work of the HAA volunteer in hospitals across Ontario. These. are to be placed in the hospital and medical building waiting rooms. After reading them, you too will probably decide to take a more active role in seeking to improve patient care, both in hospital and in the community. A letter was read from the local Kinette Club, announcing the Poinsettia Flower of Hope Sale. The order form was circulated to all members. The proceeds are directed to the Muscular Dystrophy Fund.
