Georgetown Herald A Division of Home Company Limited Main Street South Georgetown Ontario WALTER C BIEHN PAGE AUGUST 13th EDITORIAL COMMENT A Sensible Plan A home care program which county J H Chamberlain has presented to the county board of health has two things in its favour It could drastically reduce the treatment cost which hospitalization entails And it could be a valuable factor in recuperation of patients who at present must remain in hospital because there are no other alternatives The plan which was piloted Wel lington County is said to reduce costs to daily from the which hospitalization entails Home treatment care therapy use of equipment and prov ision of drugs Communities wh ch have the Viclor an Order of Nurses available already have a form of this in operation The advantage of someone with a lengthy illness or chron be rig able to live in their home surroundings is obvious A hosp is the only place to be when one suffers from an illness which requires constant medical and nursing care and when emergencies can arise requiring instant act on But there are many cases where with a daily visit from a nurse or aide an look in by a doctor all that is needed The therapeutic value alone in a pat lent living h s own home reason enough to cons dor the plan The dollar which would accrue is an extra and welcome addition to the picture A Lesson in Mosport A week

was cleverly devis ed At home it was advertised as motor cycle racing with added musical entertain ment In the States was advertised as a rock festival Thef obvious happened The races were cancelled Policing was confined to outside the grounds And hordes of young people were left to their own devices for three days of music drugs and what have you Newspapers and played up the sensational aspects Open peddling of drugs nudity depravity of every sort parently there s a hard core group of young people who travel from festival to festival to get their kicks Morally we have nothing but for people
