"The health unit is in- volved in your daily life," said Dr. Cieslar, noting that ' restaurants are checked out by the , health unit's in- spectorsand public health nurses are in the school sys= tem. "You can't go anywhere we haven't beenfirst," said Dr. Cieslar. In outlining the health unit's activities for op, the medical officer of health 'noted that the compulsory Immunization Act resulted in the .,nursing staff seeing that all school children are immunized or had either 'a doctor's certificate or a religious exemption. "It is hoped with the com- pletion- of the compulsory immunization program, measles in particular will be a thing of the past," stated Dr. Cieslar. However, school .immuni- zations are not the only activities of the health unit. "Mental health needs in our community were studied' with the formation of the Huron -Perth Mental Health Task Force on, which I sat, throughout most 'of 1983. With :the reduction of psychiatric :`hospital beds over the last three decades, the number of disabled in the • h • community has greatly in- creased; without a corres- ponding increase in com- munity facilities and serv- ices. Mental illness and alco- holism are major causes of disability in our society. Efn- phasis will be placed upon ' increasingservices in our county to meet these needs," said Dr. Cieslar. Back to health promotion, Dr. Ciesl9 said it isa "posi- tive sign' that both the edu cation and promotion aspect of health are becoming of great interest to society., "We are very pleased. with the efforts of our health edu- cator and the Ministry (Health) funding in this most important area. Neverthe- less, this is only a pitifully small, amount to combat ma- jor lifestyle disease epi- demic's thatconfront our society today," tr.. , Ciesjar said. Two new -programs in 1983 were the chronic home care program, funded 100 per cent by the ministry and a ilii, ministry project,- to detek mine the needs of develop- mentally handicapped adults inhomes for special care and. nursing homes in both Huron and Perth Counties. The in- formation from 'the latter project has been turned over to local developmentally handicapped associations. Statistics,presented, by Dr. Cieslar she the largest re ported communicable disease last year in Huron was influenza. There were 2,128 reported cases. Chickenpox was the sec- ond, larges reported com- municable disease in the county las year. There were 88 reported ases. There weres each of Salmonellosis and Giar- diasis last year and in re- sponse to a question from a county councillor few of the names tagged to the diseases have a lay term. There were 13 cases of measles and 12 each of veneral disease and campy- lobacter. From herethe numbers drop drastically for the com- municable diseases. - Other statistics show that 'as of Dec. .31 of last year, there were 193 clients of the family planning clinics in the county. There were also 294 rabies investigations last year com- pared to 228 the year before. However, the number of positive rabies cases num- bered 70 last year compared to 38 the year before. py .
