REID MAYOR GOD SAVE TIHE DING ospital Report No 2 This is the second in a series of three articles designed to acquaint the public with the - details of every phase of the affairs of Scott Memorial' Hospital. In it we will present in condensed form, an over-all picture of present conditions at the hospital. The Board consists of thirteen appointed mem- bers, and at present time is at full strength. Former- ly there were two women members; now three wo- men Sit On. the Board. From the member's, three committees are set up, Finance, House and Prop, erby,, to take care of the details in their particular scope. Each Chairman is asked to report the worn: of his committee at. the regular monthly Board meet- ings. In this way the Board knows exactly the work- ings of the Hospital and their task of guiding its operation is simplified. There are twenty-six on the staff at this time including the Matron, ten graduate nurses, six nurses' aides, one operating -room nurse, one x-ray technician, three kitchen assistants, one office clerk, r•esideince housemother and caretaker. the latter of twenty-four hour duty. The hospital has been work- ing shorrt shift tor some time, reliable nurses being always in great demand, The matron is completely in charge of hospital discipline, buying and menus. Today the hospital is being run in e systematic rout- ine which did not exist even one year ago. Then a House Committee meeting as regards administration of Hospital affairs was a farce, today a monthly report is made giving at a glance a clear picture of receipts and expenditures and forming an invaluable basis of comparison. • We have heard the furnishings of the new wing discussed a great deal. Ten thousand, dollars does seem an excessive sum, but at • the time that the contract was let, Simpson's was one of the few ,firms who could do the job. The matter was carefully, discussed from all angles and unanimously endorsed by the Board. The new wing is complete in every detail and it is a real experience to see its marvel - nous fittings and color schemes, Anyone who has been ill knows the value of pleasant surroundings and the atmosphere •111 the new wing could not help but speed one's recovery, You will be interested to know too that a poem of .Tahn Beattie "In the Gar- den" hangs in each room. lending a note of cheerful inspiration. Regarding the rates, on car'r'ying out a check on present rates in surrounding towns and in Stratford and London, we have found tine cityrates ' to be much higher generally, and the towns to be' much the same as. Seaforth. At Clinton plans are being made to adopt the sante rates as Seaforth. We a;ll are aware of the present high cost of living and mist realize that an increase in cost of hospital care is a natural result. Many 'may criticize the hospital's policy of buy- ing out of town. A check of hospitals from Owen Sound to Godcri.ch and from Goder•ich to Kitchener revealed, that all were purchasing wholesale. A check of inyoices showed the price in bulk much better than the price your local retailer is getting. This system was set up under the management of L. 91!. DeLal r'anier ancl.a detailed report of food stuffs and drugs is now made each month. This now .entails • extra work fon' the Superintendent but has proven to, be a .great advantage over' the old mere haphazard methods. - • • A scrutiny of countless questionnaires filled out by patients about to be discharged revealed no seri- ous complaints. It was indeed quite gratifying to read, "T received. the best of care, food excellent," over and over, and to realize that those who have experienced our hospital care have tound it more than adequate. • W. H. FINNIGAN Chairman of Board
