McHenry Man Chairman Of Hospital Week Observance VIRG'S AUTO TOPICS by Virgil Atwood CLONK CLUE * This lady drove in at VIRG'S STANDARD SER­ VICE and excitedly re­ marked. "There's a clonk ... clonk ... clonk ... be­ neath my car." We mention this because there's probably more 'clonks' beneath cars than there's filling stations in this town. It's just the worn rubber bushings on the shock absorbers that need replacing. This is an easy and inexpensive job but is an important one. You see, the shocks aren't being fully operational when they're loose. Sometimes, the shocks are worn out, too. We check them for you at the same time. This lady was pleased with our service. She said something odd as she drove out. "Maybe I won't get anymore shocks on the door handle now that the shock absorbers are fixed." ADV. Facility expansion and con­ tinuing personnel training are among ways Memorial Hospital for McHenry County demon­ strates its concern for the pa­ tients of today and in the years ahead. The effort to meet today's demands for health care and the anticipated growing demands a- head dramatizes Memorial hos­ pital's action in bringing to life the 1970 National Hospital Week theme, "Your Hospital Cares". Memorial Hospital for Mc­ Henry County-its medical and nursing and ancillary staff of 270 employees-are joining in National Hospital Week obser­ vance again this year, Kenneth Schuh, president, announced as he stressed the philosophy of the entire hospital by echoing the secondary theme of this year's observance: "Our first concern is the welfare of pa­ tients entrusted to our care." The National Hospital Week observance will be conducted by the Public Relations Commit- tee okthe Board of Direaors headed by Harold Nye, Mc­ Henry, chairman. During this year's public in­ formation program, Memorial hospital will tell the public a- bout opportunities available in more than 200 . job classifi­ cations involved in hospital work. "Memorial Hospital is head of the national ratio with 270 persons to serve its 100- bed hospital," said Schuh. "We have more than 10,000 items to equip our hospital. They range from abrasives to x-ray film, from ammeters to wringers." * Though hospital costs have risen nationally, Memorial hos­ pital costs have not climbed as far nor as fast, but it is re­ assuring to know that this hos­ pital is able to provide the more than 60,000 citizens in the area it serves with the best possible care, continued Schuh. Memorial hospital's expan­ sion program is moving ahead in pace with the steel work for the new fourth floor going into place and with the northwest corner addition taking shape. The roof on this area will be completed soon. "This $1.6 million building Would you believe... only *189°° buys this Thermo King?

I Next to VFW 3006 Rte. 120 Ph. 385-0783 1 program demonstrates the abil­ ity of the board, Administrator Bert Hanson, the medical staff and the employees of the hos­ pital to put into action now what is necessary to supply new fa­ cilities, new equipment and modernized quarters," said Schuh. The addition will include thirty-four new patient beds. A growing range of out-patient and home care programs broad­ ens the hospital's service to this community beyond the tra­ ditional services most people associate with health care in a hospital. A series of informational news stories on the way Mem­ orial hospital carries out its responsibility to dramatize "Your Hospital Cares" will be presented to county news me­ dia between now and National Hospital Week. "The public is increasingly aware of the value of top-flight hospital and medical care. The fact that five new doctors have joined the, staff . by coming to this community/helps indicate that Memorial hospital is a con­ cerned and progressive hos­ pital," continued Schuh. "A growing staff of dedicated physicians and surgeons will assure residents of the area that their health care is in the hands of those who strive for ex­ cellence intheir servicetotheir patients." In discussing improvements in facilities and equipment, Schuh observed they will help make the hospital "better than ever" but he emphasized that "nothing will replace the per­ sonal concern of people caring for and about people." T H E "R* World ^ Of Pharmacy Ladies Of Lake Favor Buying New Gate Signs The Ladies of the Lake held a meeting April 9 at the beach house. At this time they voted in favor of buying new gate number signs. Many people do not know this, but the gate num­ ber signs that are in our village at present were a donation from the Ladies. There was also a donation of $50 made to wel­ fare in the business session. Af­ ter business was taken care of, the ladies enjoyed the "Silent Auction". It was great fun! Each person was given slips of paper and without knowing what anyone else would bid, made a bid and tucked it under the object and of course, the object goes to the highest bid­ der. After this bit of nonsense^ the ladies enjoyed cake and cof­ fee and a nice visit with each other.

DRIVING SAFETY AND YOU NO. 1 In 1968, fifty-five thousand plus died as a result of traf­ fic accidents. Two million plus sustained disabling injuries. This is a new record. Physicians know that an oun­ ce of prevention is better than a pound of cure. When this is not possible, they advocate the next best thing, minimize the injury by getting the victim to the hospital as soon as pos­ sible. Highway accidents involve the driver, vehicle, and medical care. Car manufacturers must and are continuing to improve safety devices including collap­ sible steering wheels, bumpers that give, shatterproof glass and other measures. But, of greatest importance is the driver! Seat belts re­ duce mortalities 41 per cent and shoulder harnesses help another 30 per cent. Head in­ juries are common when these protective devices are not worn. tt-- More Next Week Your physician and pharma­ cist are members of the same "HEALTH TEAM" dedicated to serving you.
