Carson addresses auxiliary annual meet Keith Carson, Registered Nurse and coordinator of the emergency -outpatient wing at the Wingham and District Hospital told the general meeting of the hospital auxiliary Monday afternoon that his unit is the smallest in this area of the province, but one of the busiest. The Wingham emergency unit operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week and handles• approximately 12,000 patient visits an- nually. That number is projected to increase to 24,000 in the next 10 years. A great many cases are at- tended to, most requiring routine. medical attention, but a few are life-threatening emergencies. Four specialist clinics are held there regularly which save patients long trips to larger centres. However in the present crowded guar-. ters, the unit is operating under serious difficulties. The. prospect . of having adequate facilities in the:new addition is encouraging.' Plans include a central nursing station with five separate, self-contained examination -treatment rooms which will ensure privacy and confidentiality. There will be three doc- tors' offices, an operating room, . a resuscitation room, an orthopedic room and a day centre. Adequate space also will be available for a waiting room and for the necessary modern equip- ' ment as well as for the ac- commodati in of several new clinics. • The meeting's business was conducted by the president, Mrs. Marilyn MRS.
