Record Hospital Activi y A crew from the audio visual services of University Hospital London was at the hospital last week shooting material for an audio visual video which will assist in presen- ting the hospital story to the community when the campaign to raise funds for the con- struction program gets under way early in the autumn. Using a text prepared by Robert Woolsey, University Hospital video technologist, the video indicates a typical day at the hospital. In addition it recalls the early days of hospital service and the way in which it has served succeeding generations. Taking part in the video are Fred Tilley board chairman, Marten Vincent who leads the fund raising committee, James M. Scott long time Board member and former chairman, Don Kernihan assistant administrator, Mrs. Joan Chesney Nursing supervisor for emergency, operating and out patients, Mrs. Arnold Scott, Wayne Scott and Mrs. Nancy Gridzak. Planning a Visit? When you visit a friend or relative in hospital, please remember that you can help or hinder recovery. The patient and the hospital staff will thank you for your • consideration. When you visit... •Your co-operation in observing visiting hours can allow the hospital to follow its regular routine in caring for its patients and speed their recovery. •Try to be cheerful. If you give patients "bad" news, you only put blocks in the road to recovery. •Keep your conversation light. Don't ask the patient to make decisions. •Make your visits brief. The patient isn't as strong as he once was and tires easily. •Please do not bring food to a patient. Many patients are on a special diet and any variation from the food prescribed will only hinder recovery. groups it supports is People First, a self- help, self -advocacy group organized by and for people with mental handicaps. Ministry of Community and Social Ser- vices funding has also been provided for Kids Today, a children's resource centre located at the Women Today office in Clin- ton. The resource centre will offer non- sexist consciousness -raising books and toys for children. Board member Carol Casey, who co- ordinated the project, said organization is "investigating the setting up of a toy - lending library and drop-in for mothers and their children. "What the Kids Today project becomes will depend on the needs and input of the membership," she added. Board President Crane said "We hope to open up to (Huron County women) our vi- sion of Women Today and to invite (them) to enter into the flow in p more active and exciting way." She described her involvement with Women Today as "a time of learning, ex- citement, frustration, and friendship. The support and bonding that happens When a group of women come together with a com- mon goal is something hard to find and is to be cherished." picnic Saturday WICKER FURNITURE 20Y1OFF We accept Visa and Mastercard FOLD UP O PICNIC TABLE 29.99 114.99 BEAUTLTONE PAINTS •STAINS *BRUSHES •ROLLERS *SUPPLIES Ben Van DenHengel 2nd, Tim Devereaux 3rd.
