Ttiursd»y, Maxdi 7.1963 TIE McHHtRT PLAJNDEALER Overcrowding At Valley Hi County Home Will Be Discussed In Area Ptf* m Overcrowded conditions at Valley Hi Nursing home mak§ care of the sixty-five residents difficult, Howard H. Nehlig, co-administrator, agreed this week in discussing facilities at the county home. "Visitors to Valley HI will see examples of how a twobed room becomes an inefficieat three-bed room. They will see a storage room converted to a two-bed room without windows, proper heating or ventilation and without natural light," <jsaid Nehlig. The dining room has been cut in half, much of it converted to office space. By avoiding the use of a room as an administrative office, Nehlig succeeded in making space available for two residents but at the cost of office privacy and proper dining conditions. "Wheel chair patients can not come to the dining room to eat because the tables are so crowded they cannot move among them, so our staff is forced to serve several residents in their rooms every day." The corridor -- lined with handrails to assist residents in moving from area to area -- is the waiting room for infirmary. This is far removed from the original plans and is a violation of the state laws governing resident homes. Only the fact that a building program is being considered prevents state officials from taking decisive action. Crowded conditions work a handicap on residents, Nehlig said, as well as on staff members. Colds, flu, diarrhea and other diseases spread throughout the home because of inadequate physical therapy treatments because every niche is filled with residents or used for storage. Storage areas have been converted into more urgent uses. The new building program, proposed by the county board of supervisor^ for voter approval April 2, includes arrangements to isolate residents who are ill. It also will enable a therapy and rehabilitation area to become a reality. The water system will be improved and a water tower constructed to assure an adequate water supply. Located in the country near Hartland, Valley Hi must be prepared to famish water for fire fighting. A significant development occirred at Richmond last week, N&ilirr Tf-ported. The scronrt major organisation to endorse a resolution supporting adoption of the Valley Hi referendum proposal is the Richmond Rotary club. This group took action last week. Earlier the McHenry County Medical association gave the bond issue proposal its enthusiastic endorsement. Other groups are expected to support the bond issue proposal when they meet in March.
