County will pick up the tab
to keep homemaker service
By Jeff Seddon
Huron County council agreed
Friday to pick up a $5,100 tab to
keep a county homemaker ser-
vice operating for families in the
county in need of domestic
assistance because of illness, old.
age or handicaps. The service
has been operating for almost a
year under a Canada Works
grant but to continue operating
the service must be self support-
ing by January 1, 1979 and mem'
county help to meet that objec-
tive.
Jean Young, administrator of
the service, appealed to council,
explaining that the service is
$5','099 away from . being ' self
supporting with the clients it now
serves. She said the budget for
the homemaker service bar been
drawn up for 1979 and, „after..
expenses, is that►uhort ch s'of
paying'foriiieff: Slie said the ter -i;
vice needs ` assurance that the '
funds will be made available tai
plan operation in the poriiing
year, adding that any fundraising
held in 1979 would earn Tends that
could be used for clients who
qualify for assistance, by the
homemakers but are being turn-
ed away because of a shortage of
money.
Mrs. Young told council that
the reaction to the homemakers
service when it began operation
proved there is a need for the ser-
vice in Huron County. She said
homemaker needs in the county
were going unanswered and that
homemakers were unempldyed.
The administrator said she and
Betty Cardno, nursing ad-
ministrator for the county health
unit, applied for start-up funds
from Canada Works a year ago
and began to. organize a home-
maker service. She said the ser-
vice was designed to co-ordinate
a homemaking' service for the
elderly, chronically ill, disabled
handicapped and for single psr-
ent families with children,
providing full-time, part-time,
overnight and live in homemak-
ing service.
The ' Canada Works grant en-
abled the homemaking service to
establish itself and plans were
made to make the agency self
supporting, selling its service on
a fee for service basis and seek-
ing support from community ser-
vice dubs and municipal govern-
ments .in the county.
Mrs. Yomig said the fee for ser-
vice enables the agency to sell its
services to Children's Aid, the
cancer society and to private in-
dividuals. -She said the fees are
established on an ability to pay
basis, meaning the fee a client
will be charged is determined
according to his or her income.
She told council ' the homemak-
ing service has been instrument-
al in allowing many people in the
county to leave institutions and
return to their homes to live with
the assistance of a homemaker.
She. -said the cast to taxpayers is
dramatically less if a service if
offered in the home rather than in
an instiuttion such as a hospital
or senior citizens' home.
She explained that clients in
the past year had purchased
$71,135 worth of services from the
homemaker agency and said that.
if those people had been in nurs-
ing homes the costs would have
been $102,755 and if they had been
in hospital it would have totalled
4564,487.
"The difference in tax dollars
'Saved is $596,107," she said. "As
you can see we are not only a
vital employment agency
throughout Huron County but an
economical member of the whole
health service team."
Mrs. Young said the service
has 71 people on staff and has
sold 10,229 hours of service to 100
different private clients. She said
the rate charged health and soc-
ial agencies is $4.20 in a town and
$4.60 for out-of-town clients. She
added that live-in and overnight
rates differ according to
qualifications of the worker and
the work required by the client.
She told council that .14 per cent
HUGE CROWD—More than 1,000 people, virtually all senior citizens, were at F. E. Madill
Secondary School Saturday night to See The Scott Family of Oquaga Lake, Deposit Hoarse,

of the population of Huron County
is over 65 and that very few of
those people need to be in institu-
tions. She said government and
private concerns are strongly
suggesting that home-based ser-
vices be established to help
people of all economic back-
grounds remain in their homes
and out of costly facilities such as
hospitals.
She pointed out that one of the
direct benefits of the homemaker
agency is that it permits single
parent families to stay together,
freeing the parent to go out to
work and enabling the children to
continue their schooling. It also
eliminates the psychological pro-
blems of people about to enter
institutions, frees needed hospi-
tal beds for the actually ill and is
a source of employment for
thousands of educationally dis-
adyapteged men and women.
Paul Steckle, Stanley township
deputy -reeve, said he was sur-
prised senior levels of govern-
ment were not giving this type of
service more consideration. He
said the tax savings are stagger-
ing and if they are indicative of
fact, government should show.
more interest in this type of ser-
vice rather than institutions that
are so costly.
Betty Cardno advised council
that consideration is being given
to expanding homemaker agenc-
ies. She said governments are
concerned about possible abuse
of the service on a provincial.
basis and want to tighten up
administration of it before imple-
menting any programs.
Mrs. Cardno explained the
homemaking agency provides
only 80 hours of service using o
government funds and then the
client receiving the service must
pay for any additional time. She
said one of the concerns of
government is that doctors may
recommend a patient receive
homemaker services rather than
have that patient placed in an
institution. She said at present
the doctors' recommendation
may mean the service would be
paid for by government and that
type of possibility has to be re-
moved before government will
sanction the service.
