Physio department at hospital
The physiotherapy department of the
Seaforth Community Hospital was the
recipient off almost $4,500 in equipment on
Thursday, April 20.
In 1986 the Seaforth chapter of the Order
of the Eastern Star approached the
Florence Nightingale Home Foundation,
Order of the Eastern Star regarding a
donation of equipment to the Seaforth
hospital. The Hospital administrator com-
piled a list of equipment the hospital re-
quired, along with the price of each item,
and gave it to the Order of the Eastern
Star. The list was then forwarded to the
Florence Nightingale Home Foundation
for its consideration, and on January 4,
1989, the Seaforth Order was notified the
committee had authorized the purchase of
equipment for the hospital.

DAY
and all year long!
The equipment donated includes a
rehabilitation trainer, which is a piece of
equipment not unlike an exercise bike, but
it is useable for the upper or lower body,
and it keeps track of the patient's pro-
gress. It is valued at $1,325. A second item
is a Bobath table, which is a broad, padded
table which electrically may be moved up
and down. The Bobath table is used in
training stoke victims or patients with
neurological disorders, and is worth $2,325.
The third piece of equipment is the manual
muscle tester, which is used to show pa-
tients how treatment increases their
strength. It costs $775.
This equipment was officially received
at the phsiotherapy department on Thurs-
day, when officials from the Florence
Nightingale Home Foundation and the
Seaforth Chapter of the Order of the
EQUIPMENT DONATED - The Seaforth community hospital recently received about

physiotherapist Carol Bowker accepted the equipment on behalf of the hospital from
Florence Symons of Clinton, Chairman of the foundation; Dorothy Seaborn of Brighton,
foundation director; and Duncan McFadgen of Burlington, treasurer. Corbett photo.
Eastern Star presented it to hospital per-

Florence Symons of Clinton, director
Dorothy Seaborn of Brighton, and

the equipment to hospital administrator
Don Smith and physiotherapist Carol
'Bowker.
The Florence Nightingale Home was
owned and operated by the Order of the
Eastern Star, Grand Chapter of Ontario.
When the home was sold the money was in-
vested, and each year the interest on
invested money is used to purchase egLl
ment for hospitals in Ontario.

Canvass results
not available
Results of the Seaforth Community
Hospital door-to-door canvass are not yet
available.
Chairman of the Fundraising Committee,
Marlen Vincent, says only about 20 per cent
of the canvasser's kits have been completed
and handed back to the canvass organizers,
and he feels it is premature to release dollar
figures at this time.
"We're trying to wind this canvass up as
fast as we can, but people are dragging their
feet," said Mr. Vincent.
The canvass, which began on March 28,
was supposed to last two weeks, but is now
entering its fifth week. Organizers are hop-
ing to have the canvass 100 per cent com-
pleted within the next two weeks.
But while the door-to-door campaign
nears completion, the fundraising campaign
in general is in full swing and will be ongo-
ing for some time. Mr. Vincent says
Seaforth businessmen are now being asked
for contributions, letters soliciting dona-
tions' are being, sent -to corporations which
have branches in Seabftofth, and a list of
former residents of the'Seaforth area is be-
ing drafted to request their support.
If there are people who were missed in the
door-to-door canvass who want to make a
donation, Mr. Vincent would encourage
them to contact him at 527-0120 or 527-0373.
