Minister at Huronview gets first increase Huron County Council learned through a report from the Committee of Management of Huronview last Thursday that notice has been received from the Ministry that effective February 1, 1977 the daily extended care rate co- payments had changed. The rate itself, the report noted, remains at $21.00 per day but the resident share, or co -payment, has been in- creased by 20 cents to $7.60 per day, ! thus reducing the insured portion to $13.40. Council endorsed a com- mittee approved rate of $6.05 per hour for part time Registered Nurses, effective January I, 1977. This represents a six percent increase over the 1976 rate of $5.70. The service employees slaries and benefits for the years 1976 and 1977 have been approved by the Anti- inflation board it was also noted. Religious services at Huronview will cost more as well.

Council agreed to increase the minister's services fee $1,000 per year. It was also reported that Warren Zinn had been ap- pointed Vice Chairman of the Committee of Management at Huronview.

It also recommended that the County of Huron con- tribute its share of the project, that is $4,225, whether or not the program was approved by the province. County councillors sup- ported both recom- mendations. ., Bayfield Reeve Ed Oddleifson asked if the County share would help at all if the province did not come through with it hare. "Will it get junk food out of our schools?" he asked. Medical Officer of Health Dr. Frank Mills assured him it would help. NutritionistConsultant Helen Brown was on hand to answer questions and to explain the proposed duties of a nutritionist employed by the Board of Health. She said that person would assess overall nutrition needs in the community and noted that many public health problems are actually related to nutrition. After such an assessment, she said, the nutritionist health. dep would initiate and develop nutrition programs. This would include work in the school system, through the media, volunteer groups, parent teacher associations, the meals on wheels program, the elderly and weight watching groups. It took a clause by clause vote on the Board of Health report to pass the recom- mendation but it was ap- proved with only Seaforth Reeve John Flannery and Allan Campbell, Reeve of McKillop Township, opposing the motion.
