STAFF SERVICE AWARD — RNA Marion Cornish receives her five-year pin
from Audrey Pooley, director of nursing, while Hospital Administrator Roger
Sheeler looks on.
Award system
Hospital administrator, Roger
Sheeler, has begun a system of staff
awards. Ansett Jewellers specially
designed a pin with the initials SHHA
(South Huron Hospital Association).
The pins for two, five and ten years
of service are gold-plated; the five
year pin holds a ruby, and the 10
years a sapphire.
At the 15 -year mark, the pins
become ten carat gold with one dia-
mond, two for 20 years; a slightly
larger pin holds three diamonds to
designate 25 years of service.
Several long-time staff members
are already wearing their pins which
are presented on the actual anniver-
sary date,
We are very pleased to

Central registry success
After many months of planning,
the Central Registry program was in-
troduced, September 1982. The pro-
gram, designed to reduce the paper-
work and more importantly speed
the processing of patients through
the out-patient departments, requires
that certain information be provided
on the first visit.
A plastic identification card is
issued from such and is presented
each time the patient returns. Each
patient has his/her own unique iden-
tification number which is retained
for a lifetime, allowing all hospital
records to be filed in one central file
- thus, providing a more complete
history when assessing an in-
dividual's condition.
The only time a patient is required
to provide additional information is
when a change of status, change of
address, etc. occurs. Previously, pa-
tients had to repeat the information
each time they arrived for treatment,
even when treatment occurred in the
previous day.
The publicity program, fashioned
after the infamous ET, attracted the
public's attention resulting in an
overwhelming response to the pro-
gram.
To date, 9,500 patients have been
processed through the service.
