I'MiK |«. IM.AINDEAI.KR - FRIDAY, TACKLE PROBLEM OF MEETING AREA HEALTH NEEDS (Continued from pag* 1) system; and encouraging citizen involvement in the system. Ms. Patla identified several ob­ jectives projected for the 1980 to '83 three-year plan that had not been met. One was to develop an interdiagnostic clinic for infant evaluation in the Birth to Three DD program not achieved because cooperative agencies were not interested in pursuing it. In the emergency service area it was to develop alcohol detoxification in a general hospital. This was not achieved because a planning study recommendation for four beds was considered but lacked sufficient "documentation". An objective to link other existing county crisis or stress emergency numbers to the 24-hour mental health crisis line was not achieved because other hot lines wanted their own identity. In the inpatient service area the development of an alcohol residential treatment program was not achieved because a feasibility study performed by an institution doing this work outside of the county did not recom­ mend such a facility locally. No work to date has been done to determine the need for a child and adolescent in­ patient program. In the community residential service area an investigation for need of a program for children and adolescents and substance abusing population has not been made to date, Ms. Patla concluded. She also pointed out issues to be clarified by the P & M board. In seeking and providing housing for MI and DD persons the definition of "handicapped" person to qualify for subsidized housing is unclear and there is a problem of private owners setting exclusionary policies that would shut out some types of han­ dicapped from some housing. The availability and accessibility of health care services for Medicaid clients (recently cut by further state ordered restrictions) among the MI and DD .MAY 20, 1983 and indigent persons was another issue. A question of the availability of food stamp entitlement for clients in the mental health programs, ifk some cases now in question was also noted. The effect of high unemployment in the county and the resulting stress on the unemployed population which effects mental health came in tor its share of attention as well. Ms. Patla said the P & M board could recommend some actions for these issues such as working with the Housing Authority to tie down the HUD definition of "handicapped" and check out the policies of local vendors who have rental units that qualify for subsidies with a view to eliminating „ exclusions. For health service, the board could participate with the HSA in a joint survey of physicians in McHenry county to find doctors who would accept Green Card (Medicaid) clients in payment of services. The board could also work with the locaiPublic Aid office to review policies that might exclude mental health clients from food stamp entitlements and to change these where possible. Concerning unemployment, Ms. Patla explained the board could ex­ plore, with the McHenry County college workshops, the subject of unemployment related stress, explore with financial Counseling, Inc. workshops on stress related to financial problems, work with the FS and MHC's counseling and education program for seminars, workshops, etc. She added that it could even consider establishing or using an employment service if it seems cost effective, and to explore with CETA the status of retraining programs in the county and its future and as an aid to the unemployed. Because Director Smith noted the "information overload" being offered to P & M board members, the discussion was spread over several meetings. MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued from page 1) lines in front of outdoor ice cream stands on a warm evening. Noon hour phone calls to sell house siding "and bright your home" is a sales pitch that escaped us in the blustery months just past. But it has returned, and with enthusiasm. We would know Spring was with us by the crowds in restaurants which tend to come about an hour later than any other time of year because of garden and lawn chores. And the very sure sign is the smile on the face of every service station owner as the mileage travelled goes up - along with the price of the gas. KAF ^ CONSULTANT TO ADVISE ON LANDFILL CONCERNS (Continued from page 1) plication this week. The application will request ap­ proval of a new sanitary landfill on 138 acres located at the southeast corner of Illinois 176 and McCue road, in Seneca township, southwest of Woodstock. • No hazardous wastes will be ac­ cepted at the proposed landfill, ac­ cording to Waste Management in its application. The 200-member McHenry County Improvement association has said it will fight the landfill application and has retained a lawyer to represent its objections. According to the newly adopted landfill ordinance, any person may file written comments with the county board "concerning the ap­ propriateness of the proposed site for its intended purpose." The county board will consider comments postmarked within 30 days of the filing of application for a land­ fill. The ordinance also calls for at least one hearing on the application within 60 days of its filing. A hearing com­ mittee on landfill applications has been establihed by McHenry County Board Chairman Clint Claypool. The committee's decision on a landfill application must be submitted to the full board within 120 days from the filing of the application, according to statute. Then the county board will make its decision based on the record from the public hearing and the committee's recommendation. No determination by the county board of a site approval request may be reconsidered, accordinng to the ordinance. However, the bottom line is that if the county approves or disapproves a proposed landfill application, it, in fact, does not make the final decision. That is made by the Illinois Pollution Control Board, which has a final say on landfill sites in the state, after the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency makes its recommendations. GO-AHEAD FOR VALLEY HI EXPANSION (Continued from page 1) approved, in 1969, the enlargement of the old nursing home. The 47-bed addition was started in the Spring of 1970 and completed within a year. Funding for the current proposed addition will be obtained, through the county's Public Building/commission. "They'll probably issue bonds to cover the full cost," ^orefield said, explaining that revenues generated by Valley Hi will pay for retirement of the bonds. "Right now, we're doing staff projections for the addition and getting into details of budget projections too," the administrator said. The current residents of Valley Hi "are really excited and looking for­ ward to the building plans," he said. The number of people waiting to enter Valley Hi often reaches 50, according to Morefield, and the need for additional nursing care beds for elderly residents of the county was recently emphasized in a presentation to the county board. William J. Cowlin, former state's attorney, told the board that in his recent years as a private lawyer he has noted the large number of elderly people living on fixed and low incomes who arc placed on a waiting list to be admitted to V;*!ley Hi. To meet the growing need of the elderly citizens who are unable to completely and financially support themselves, Cowlin said it »is necessary to „ provide additional facilities and to remodel certain areas of the home "to properly provide services as the program dictates today." Tuesday's Valley Hi report to the county board showed the home is filled to capacity with 90 residents. Currently, according to the report, there are 16 men on the waiting list and 25 women.
