Shown here are Helen Elliott, Helen Broadfoot, Jr. Insti- tute president; Mac Stewart, Jr, Farmer president,. and Ken Gemmell. A Member $ (Continued from Page 2) Published the same day was a report of a board meeting of Alexandra Marine and Gener- al 'Hospital in Goderich at which chairman S. Prevett said there was an obvious need for a ruining home in Goderich. Provincial authorities had ask- ed the boards to reduce the number of beds for chronic pa- tients. ,Here we have a very interesting situation, On one hand, Goderich 'hospital board is being 'told by the govern- ment to reduce the number of beds for chronic • patients; the chairman , of the county Vine board says our prOblerns con tinue to grow as our resident 'total begins to get beyond ca- pacity and concludes by • say- ing that the county home is not- geared to take care ' of chronic patients but when there is no place else we have to take them. On the other hand, Mrs. Ber- nard Henderson who recently conducted a hospital approved nursing home told the council that no privately administered home could compete with the per diem cost-' of $3.75, Mrs. Henderson pinpointed the prob- lem when she said, "Even if aks - you had a nursing home in God- erich nobody would go there when the Huronview, rate is $3.75. The reaso,n the rate is $3.75 is because.,county homes for the aged are ,subsidized by the government and .therefore do not reflect the true actual cost of this care. It. is obvious that private nursing homes or private industry, if you will, cannot compete successfully against AnNenterprise' which is I subsidiztd by • the taxpayer. Th.us it is a ludicrous situation where a selected few are hav- ing their tax dollars used to put them out of. busthess. All this has developed and has nur- -tared clesPite7the.-faetethat- the- gOverninent prides itself in the image of grandfather to private 'industry.

SMITII — Phone 792 r Art ..A1 v r.Pooltac, .40,4402,100*(iptiWkatttivat, The Prime Midister speaks in glowing terms about his gov- ernment believing in the phil- osophy that people should not be socialized to the extent that whatever they have is taken from them by the state and handed back by a bureaucrat whether, in fact, they want it or not. •What I'm saying .is wherever true and actual costs are not charged to residents of county homes who have adequate mean § for self support, the tax- paying public is being called upon to subsidize the daily care of persons -who,, in many cases, are in a superior financial posi- tion to the taxpayer. The unfortunate thing about this is that people with means often unwittingly deprive our needy citizens of care. At the $3.7.5 a day rate charg- ed at kuronview in Clinton, municipalities would consider it financially good business to send a dependent of the munici- pality ,to the county home for the aged rather than to a pri- vate nursing home where they charge o -n the average $5.00. The municipality is reimbursed 80 per cent of the" cost with the remaining 20 per cent be- ing borne by- the municipality. Comparing the $3:75 rate ,cit county homes and the $5.00 a day rate of private nursing hordes it means a saving of $7.50 per month to the munici- pality if ,the person is admitted to the county home rather than a private nursing home, ' In .view of what I have said I would like to make 'several ' proposals to the government _for their consideration: 1. The government Should standardize -the rules and regu- lations governing nursing homes across the province. Those who meet the standards would be licensed by the province and those failing to do so would be refused h license. This, of course, wbuld require 'inspec- tion and perhaps this could be done by the county officer of health. 2. Extend O.H.S.C. -to- the] provincially licensed private nursing homes to cover indig- ents and chronics who require only care and supervision. This particular point must be under- lined because the greatest care must be taken not to turn pri- vate nursing homes into hospi- tals, because nursing homes have neither the equipment nor the staff to . do the work of a hospital. This is- a 'Very real problem and ' one which cannot be treated lightly. However, if care is taken 'to cover only those who require care and sup- ervision then. the problem I am sure will be overcome. This would have the happy effect of releasing some badly needed hospital 'beds that are now Oc- cupied by chronics and it would also help to alleviate the over- crowding and long waiting lists at -county homes which event- ually necessitate the building of additions to these structures. At the- end of 1963 there were 263 private and public hospi- tals in Ontario with approxi- mately 6,365 chronic beds. This whole matter has econ- omy overtones because really what 1 am suing and perhaps saying Trather badly is—let're- appraise the health and care needs of the older and ailing residents of this provinee with the idea of making the best possible use of all existing- fa.ilities. Then, and only then, canwe consciously embark on an expansion ptograrn of those faejlitieswhjeh involves thee penditilre fiuge iims on3ifh- There promises to be, action aplenty Friday night at' the Hensall Arena, when the an- nual Minor Hockey Night is staged.
