Riverside Dr. McHenry, W. Phone EV 5-2801 SHORTAGE PROVES HEALTH PROBLEM A dangerous shortage of professional hospital personnel to apply the nfew healing skills arising out of recent medical advances is one of the most pressing health problems in the state, according to George K. Hendrix, president of the Illinois Hospital association. The hospital spokesman ad-, dressed a luncheon audience of area hospited administrators last week at Memorial Hospital for McHenry County, Woodstock. Harry Davis, public delations director of the state association and a resident of Highland Shores, also spoke. Referring to hospital charges, Mr. Hendrix declared that rising rates for health care must be understood "in relation to the product offered, the new miracles of healing, the vast strides in curative techniques and the fact that hospital care is care rendered by human beings, involving ttiany hands and exacting skills, all of which someblie must pay for." The speaker declaimed that "still more revolutionary medical procedures will emerge, affecting the longevity of man and the welfare of the communities and nations in which he resides, and still more pedple, especially the aged ill, will turn to the hospital for remedial treatment and the prevention of conditions leading t6 illness. But even now, "the speaker continued, "new strides in medical service have butdistanced0' the supply tof professional personnel to apply that service." In an effort to "fill this critical gap," a state-wide organization has been formed under the auspices of the state association to conduct a crash program "to recruit young people at the high school and college level for careers fa the healthand hospital field," Mr. Hegdrix announced. " Mr. Hendrix addressed an audience of 25 hospital administrators constituting the membership of District n of the Illinois Hospital Association. The state organization is a 38 year ol'd association of 286 general, governmental and specialized hospitals throughout Illinois.
