HARVEY AGNEW, M.D. PRESIDENT. ONTARIO HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION It is a fair assumption that from the time the world's first hospital was established and down through the years ever since, a hospital, like a minister's wife, has always been fair .game for criticism. . Regardless of the particular part of the province in which you may. reside, undoubtedly over the years you have heard criticism of your hospital, its board of trustees, its 'staff, its facilities. Some of it, perhaps, is not without justifica- tion. But the bulk of criticism of any public hospital operating in' Ontario today is completely un- warranted and undeserved, usual- ly coming from a lack of know- ledge of all the facts. • All of which brings us to the topic of "hospital public relations." Public relations, or "P.R." as it is more frequently called, is a term which seems to be extensively ais- ed on this continent today.

E to have numerous definitions of the term. My own view' is that "public relations" is nothing more than "relations with the public." No other organization in your community needs the support of everyone to build and maintain good public relations, yet is so likely to be criticized,as your lo- cal hospital. When one stops to consider the situation, it is quite understand- able why hospitals are so frequent- ly criticized. When people , have occasion to use a hospital they are usually badly injured or ill themselves, or are emotionally up- set over the condition of a loved one. As a result, incidents or situ- ations which normally would occa- sion little thought become matters of serious import and of grave con- cern. As everyone knows, things can, and do, go wrong at the office, at home or with the family car, es- pecially with the latter if that fam- ily has teen -aged children. But ord- inarily the average Canadian fam- ily take these incidents in their stride and forget them. Yet, when a member of the family goes to hospital, it is a topic of much con- versation among relatives and friends. Consequently, any unfav- orable comments or, criticism of the -hospital spread lkke wildfire throughout the entire 'community. It is only to be expected that oc- casions will arise in any hospital when something -might not be done as well, or as promptly, as the patient or some of his relatives may desire or expect. Actually, when one considers the great variety of services hospitals must render and the number of in- dividuals involved, the marvel is that occasions for Iegitimate criti- cism occur so rarely. The large number of individuals involved in- cludes doctors, nurses, dietitians, maids, orderlies, switchboard op- erators and so on—all of whom are only human and, therefore, capable of making mistakes or of misun- derstanding an order. But it is to prevent human errors and misin- terpretation of order that hospi- tals have set up rigid rules, regular tions and standard procedures which go far beyond what an ord- inary business would consider es- sential. Any individual who had much to do with hospitals realizes that most complaints and ctiticisms are due solely to misunderstanding and to the fact that' most patients and their relatives, particularly at the time of..admission, are emo- tionally upset. Many psychologists frankly state that all of us when physically sick (and our close rel- atives too) are mentally disturbed as well. Frequently nurses have to carry out orders of the doctor which are not known, or have not been ex- plained, to the patient. An exam- ple may be the "shooing out" of visitors, which .,results in a com- plaint from the patient. Some patients may complain that they are unable to sleep -because of the snoring of a neighbor, yet the "snorer" will complain that he never slept a wink all night and he'll berate the nurse for charting that he "slept fairly well." Today, in keeping with the mod- ern trend, hospitals are doing ev- erything in their power to build and retain good relations with all of their "publics". Better working conditions and more benefits are being provided for the staff. De- tailed information about the hos- pital and the reasons for its regu- lations are being given to patients. Longer visiting hours, later break- fasts and a choice of meals are now being given to patients. Bet- ter furnishings, radios, hospitality shops and even hairdressing salons are other recent innovations which hospitals have introduced, all of which improve public relations. Next time you hear a complaint or criticism about your hospital. remember that this may not be the whole story. Don't help to spread it! Instead, adopt the at- titude that "P.R." ent41 mean "prevent rumours". Wre not tell the hospital officials ifj you have a complaint; they will either correct the fault or give you all the facts.
