VoMmittee is still struggling With•the problem of patients stay- ing in bosPital longer than the, tinte aeeeptable by Ministry standards. However, it was also Pnin _ted out that at tines there is • irniy uo other place for -patients •togo. The board was told of the : sittintiOn at a nursing home at Lucknow where the Health Ministry had cut the number of bedsfor patient use from 30 to 24. Tbe rooms are still there but are fractionally smaller than the tules call for, so they must re- - Main unoccupied. Ministry of- ficials had been asked to relax • the rules in eiceptional cases but Were adamant in their refusal to . do so. Auxiliary Mrs. K. M. MacLennan, reporting for the Hospital Auxiliary, said that there had been a capping ceremony for the "candy stripers" -the volunteer helpers who have been doing so •much to aid in patient care and comfort. Several registered nurses have been assisting the Auxiliary in its work with patients who come to the cancer clinics. Mrs. MacLennan also acitnowl- edged the gift of a "wonderful" box of donations from the Tees - water Rebekahs for the gift case operated by the Auxiliary at the hospital as a money -raising ven- ture. She said most of the items were so attractive that they have already been sold. The St. Helens Women's Auxiliary will hold a candy sale at the hospital in March to assist the Auxiliary. Mrs. Morrey reported that an insurance claim had been paid in the amount of $251.19 for light- ning damage to the radio an- tenna. It was also decided by the board to increase the hospital's liability policy of insurance from $1 million to $2 million coverage.
