MORNING SESSION

At the morning session the dele- atc; were welcomed by His Worship ayol' Kennedy. Addresses were vcn by Rev. H. G. Wright, Presi- ciit Premier MacMillan Dr. H. G

sdiui Hospital Council held in Winnlbel in September last which he attended as a. delegate and at iwhich every province was repre-_ sented. He said it would be a worth- , while thing for hospitals in certain. limited areas where they face prac- i tlcally the same problems to meet` at s central point and talk over; matters of common concern. Ali; area which comes to mind is that' of Cape Breton, the valley district of Nova Scotia, or the three hospi- tals in Prince Edward Island.

In summing up his general im- pression as President of the Asso-, ciation, he said “the debt which the i community owes to our hospitals* cannot be too strongly stressed] With the sole exception ‘ of the‘ Christian Church, they are among` the greatest benefactors of ouri land.

At the present time there were

Hospital ln Community

Dr. G. Harvey Agnew, in speaking on the hospital and the commuriity,‘ stated that in Canada there were over 900 hospitals with 87.000 beds, a chain of hospitals, and a type of or- ganization for service. secorl' to

hospital a fevered patient might bc seen smiling as a. fine nurse directed a cool drink through parched lips to a pnrched throat. In the hospitals of Charlottetown miracles were be- ing done by the doctors.

There was a beautiful new hospi-

tal here in the city, which had many features, which had not rls yet been incorporated into any other hospi- tal in the country. The people were to be congratulated on having a board of trustees and ad- ministrators who had courage and vision to go ahead in a time of stress. Dr. Agnew paid tribute to the self-sacrifice and devotion to duty of the doctors and others of thc hospital staff. Yearly 40 to 50 millions were spent in liospitalz, and only part of this was paid by the patient, Dr. Agnew outlined some of the delicate processes which were carried out in the hospitals for the benefit of the patients. In the mat- ter of mental patients, there was a very small amount of expense borne by the patients. Were it not for the hospitals, medical men would be ser- iously handicapped; hence the hos- pital was about the best investment which a community could keep up.

“Don't let George do il. all,” was

Dr. Agnew's final advice. A fewi people with doctors allfl nurses were bearing the whole burden of the community, despite the fact that tile hospital was a matter of commun- ity partnership. If the people of the community would get out and` bear their share of the bul'dcll_ they would reap the benefit of zl siliclldld

and eilicicntly run hospital.

Mr. Currie listed a number of Pre-

ducts which he stated were harmful or useless. i

Money used for useless things, he

said, could be turned into the ficld of fundamental research for the benefit of the human race. Lack Of money crippled research. It was time that the medical, hospitals and nurses associations get together to .say that the sale of worthless pro- ducts must stop. Many departments of research were starvins fi” m°"°Y~ The public should be educated a- gainst these worthless remedics, Hon. Dr. Murray Maebarcn had introduc- ed s bill to the House of Commens to curtail the use of many sclf-ad- mlnistered remedies. The slieiikef feared that wealthy manufacturers would be able to get around thc bill. All people should raise their voices against the use of fake medicines.

iivsplials and Mcdicnl Education

Dr. H. G. Grant, Dean of the Fzlc-

ulty ol Medicine at Dalhousie Ulli- versity, reviewed the irifiueiice the development oi hospital service had had on medical education and on the practice of medicine.

Comparing medical education now

with \\'l1;1L it was years ago, Dr. c.;'a..t s.....d that t‘...l‘..y 5t:..s ago .lie `ni....;:; ...-...cs. ...hear ua.. uc- pcndcnt on the Victol'i.t General l-Iospital for clinical illstruciioil as it still was to some extent.

to improvement in hospital service, Dean Grant asserted. Years ago the dept-<>r depended largely on himself in cliagnosLs. nor could anything take the place of the doctol"s owll ingenuity. But in tho last. few years special aids had developed. The use of X-rnys. of tlir- laboratory in blood examination, the estimate of a typhoid case by determining of the metabolic rate, etc., were 1'efi:l'red to. The hospital had created a great im. provemellt in medical serviclc, and now modern service was offered to the whole population, not merely io those of the lai'_s,'cl~ centres. Forllier- ly students went directly to their practice. Now glndurlics continued in specialized study. Last, year 80% of Dalhousie graduates went in for such studies.

Hospital Problems

spoke oil “Problems Facing Can-I adian Hospitals". There were all- even dozen problems before tht-il Canadian hospitals, he said. The first was that of finance, as almosti all hospiiais were “in the red." There was a general shift in pili- rolinge from private ward.; io non- paying or pzlf't-l‘»ayirlg public wards.,

the course was also '.'aluaiile. Tm- lritcrrie did all the things under su- pervision, which they would be re-i quired to do in gelicrnl practice. Ill this way they acquired rt confidence and practice available in no other

administrative bodies. Despite thu conditions the morale had nevel been higher. Often there were de- pleted or no pay envelopes. The co- operation evidenced was an encoun- ngement to the discouraged admin. sltrator.

The question of individuals doing

,specialized work was a professional problem. The day would probably ' ccme when a man would not 'call himself a specialist, unless his qualincaticns had been judged by ‘some standard. The establishment I of the Royal College of Surgeons in Canada was another yard-stick, In one of the large hospitals it was re- Ciiilred of the dociors to hold | fellowship in one of the organiza- tions. A sort of super-specialty board had been organized in U. B. . to keep vile standard.; high.

Tliere was a general lack of irau

tcmes, as the number of graduatd remained stationary.
