BY •Wf.MA OKE
The Seaforth Community,
Hospital was. 534,086 under
budget for the fiscal year
ending. March 31 the board
learned at its annual meeting,
last week. The total budget
was 51,310,247,
Ian Blair, representing:
auditors Thorne,, Riddell and::
Company said, that salaries
form 78 per cent of :the total
operating cost, and when;
combined with. • employee
benefits rises to 85 per cent..
Mr. Blair pointed out that
while in-patient occupancy
had declined.: somewhat, out-
patient care had increased to.
636 patients,
In his report Board presi-
dent Rev, l -1.J, Laragb spoke
of the three beds the Sea-
forth hospital had to close by
April 1, 1979, on Ministry of
Health orders, Before April
1, 1980 he said the Ministry
has called for closing'. another
13 beds in its financial re-
straints program.
Mr.Laragh said an appeal
had been made to the Mini-
stry and the board. • has re-
ceived, verbal assurance that
it can convert seven of the 13.
beds to chronic care,
Gordon McKenzie, hosp-
ital administrator, .spoke of
the results of a study made
by the recently set-up. Util-
ization Committee with
representatives from the
board, medical staff. and the
nursing department to ex-
plore ways and means ,.of
increasing the use of the'
hospital. facilities.
The committee discussed
numerous possibilities
including sharing services
with larger hospitals and
having specialists hold clin-
ics on regular basis at the
hospital; and another sug-
gestion being looked at is to
:have office 'accommodation
for doctors located within the
hospital.
Gest speaker Pat. Blewett
executive director of Univer-
sity Hospital
niver-sityHospital in London,
it is hoped Seaforth will be
'among the small :area hosp-
itals that may some day be
linked by television to Uni
versity .Hospital.
"In addition to providing, a „
superb medium for medical
purposes the' interact TAT.
system will be of inestimable.
value for' teaching for. all -
categories of staff,'' _he. told
the meeting.
He said plans are being
completedfor a pilot project
linking University Hospital
. and. Woodstock Hospital
Dr. Paul L. Brady said he
was glad to hear Mr. Blewett'
say he supported the concept,
of the small hospital and its
• service to the community. He
said . by Seaforth hospital
having a link with University -
Hospital it would give Sea
forth a direct link to the best.
medical brains in this part of
the world: • He 'fold Mr.
Blewett, "I' think you will
find the hospital board and
medical staff' Will coy
operate.
Dr, Bradt+ cautioned that
The autonomy of the local
hospital should not be lost.
He did not favour dietary and
laundry• services being pro -
sided, by, a big hospital, "I
wouldn't trade one meal at
the Saforth. Hospital with all
the meals you have at Uni-
versity Hospital, We have
the best dietary service of
any 'hospital around here,"
Dr. Brady emphasized.
However,; anything that
-twill give better diagnosis and
carefq'r:A .patient, he was in
favour of sharing. He
,mentioned x-rays taken at
Seaford' but read by tele-
vision at Uitiversity Hospital
would .be, especially helpful
or an electrocardiogram read
without delay.
Mr. Blewett said; he
,agreed the community hosp.
ital is the backbone of health
care. "Nothing. should be
done to disturb this," he
said'. He mentioned sharing
services of :a physiotherapist,
or :help, in ,Medical' records,
As an example he recalled
that during the illness of the
Person ng
erso ina of Medical ,... char
records at. Seafprth, his
hospital had provided an
experienced' person to work
,on records and teach staff to
carry on.
Dr, Brady said he was
concerned at Seaforth and;
other small hospitals losing;
autonomy because if further
financial problems occurred
in say 10 to 15 years from
now that Government would
not cut University Hospital
but would cut the small
outlying hospitals.
Mr, Blewett assured him,
"We shall) do nothing until
we are asked;"

Turnbull .both of Seaforth
