Chronic home care
introduced in County
Home care for the chronically ill, available in most
counties throughout the province, will finally be in-
troduced to Huron County October 15.
Health Minister Keith Norton made the an-
nouncement recently citing the growing number of
elderly residents across the province who require
long-term care. In Ontario there are 886,700 people
over the age of 65 and that figure will increase to 1.38
million by the year 2002.
The county health unit already offers acute home
care which deals with short-term active treatment.
However, Health Minister Norton said there is
growing evidence that with chronic home care,
elderly patients respond more quickly to treatment
and are more content that it is received at home.
The new program will serve approxithately 350
residents in Huron County at a cost, of $896,400 during
the first year of operation. The home care program
will offer nursing, homemaking, nutritional -coun-
selling, occupational therapy and physiotherapy for
the chronically ill.
The Huron County Health Unit already administers
an acute home care program and the chronic
program will offer the same type of home care on an
extended basis. Home care, an extension of service
offered by the county health unit, wilhalso be ad-
ministered by the unit.
A co-ordinator will be hired to assess patients for
eligibility and the services of nursing staff,
physiotherapists and homemakers will be purcahsed.
While the program will necessitate the hiring of
certain personnel, such as therapists, nutritionists
and coordinators, nursing and homemaking services
will he purchased on a need basis.
During 1982-83 more than 670 residents of Huron
County received acute home care services at a total
cost of $540,880. The average length of stay on the
acute program is 30 days while the average. exceeds
130 days on the chronic home care program.
The ministry's aim is to expand chronic home care
to all areas of the province by March 1984. Thirty-four
programs are already in operation and Huron is one
of the last counties to receive provincial funding for
the chronic care program.
The chronic home care program enables people to
be looked afterin the privacy of their own familiar
surroundings, providing their doctors recommend
the care.
Boards expect enrolment decline
By Stephanie Levesque
About 30,000 elementary and secondary students
will be hitting the books when schools open across
Huron and Perth counties on Sept. 6.
The board of education in the district, Huron
County Board of Education and the Perth County
Board of Education, recently released the number of
students projected to arrive at school on the first day
of the 1983-84 school year.
The superintendent of program with the Huron
Board of Education, Bob McCall, said the accuracy of
the projected figures is "pretty high".
A decline in enrolment is expected in most areas,
with the major " exception being the elementary
division in the Perth Board of Education system.
In the kindergarten to Grade 8 public schools in
Perth County, enrolment is expected to increase from
the 1982 figure of 10,285 to 10,395. In a further
breakdown, Stratford elementary school enrolment
is expected to increase from 2,816 to 2,890 with the
rest of the schools in the county anticipating an in-
crease from 7,469 to 7,505.
The secondary schools in Perth project a decline
from 7,132 last year to an estimated 6,841 for this
September.
Last year Perth and Huron, as well as most of the
secondary schools across the province, experienced
the phenomenon of a greater number of secondary
school students returning to the classroom than
expected.
Scarcity of employment was thought to be the main
reason for the' high number of returning secondary
school students. Unsure if the phenomenon will occur
again this year, boards are taking a wait and see
approach.
Huron is anticipating that 3,688 secondary school
