Presl- dent of the Prince County Hos- pital board: Ladies and Gentlemen:- Once a ain, it is my privilege and my peasure to present to you a report on the activities of your Hospital, whose financial year will be coming to a close in a few short days. I am taking advantage of this gathering to give you this in- formation. for. I regret to say. v81? few attend our annual meetings. where. ordinarily. a fuil report l5 presented. The Hospital. although laboring under the handicap of a shortage of funds. is making progress, im- DTOVlIIQ its physical condition, and giving to the general public a far greater degree of Protection than ever before in its history. Fire Protection A v of our premises last year convinced all of your trus- tees that something would have to be done regarding the fire risk. It. was. undoubtedly. a. menace to all of our staff, and a far greater one to those who patronized i15- We had our fire escapes and our chemical extinguisher. but they would be of little avail in subdulnll a fire in a building of this nature. We called upon the experience and wisdom of our Provincial Fire Marshall. Mr. C. A. Beer. who. u11- hesitatingly recommended the in- stallation of a sprinkler system. if we could afford it, which gives the. ultimate in fire protection and completely removes the menace of death to our patients and our staff, I have been credibly inform. ed that; there has never been a death by fire in a Sprinkler 1'0- tected building, as the system sows up the burning to such a degree that there is ample time for all to escape. In all probability, some of you may not know just how a sprink- ler system operates. so I now info- pdse giving you a short descrip- tion of it. ‘There is a four inch water supply pipe leading into our building from the town system and a series of pipos of B much 511111119! size are installed throuzhout 111B building. There is a half inch Onen- ing in these pipes in every room or enclosed space. such as. OVPr the caves. under the roof. mid 1n the closets. These 011011111515 "l"? closed with 5 metal that melts at 1; certain degree of heat. Due to the danger of frcst in certain parts of our building. these pipes are filled with air. pumped up t0 sufficient pressure to hold back the water in the sprinkler Valve in the basement. should a fire start in any part of the buildln . the metal 1n one of these ope rigs would melt and immediately there would be a deluge of water right on the location of the fire. At the “m9 time. an electric gOflg rings in the main hall and a 20hr on the out- side wall of the bulldinl fines a general alarm. The answer to the question, “Is it efficient?" is conta ned in the following . . . We are now carrying 367500.00 in insurance on the building and contents of the hos- pital pro r. at a total premium 0g $405. for three years. or an gvera e or $1115.00 oer rear- 11nd" the o rate, this premium would have been $1620.00 for the three years, or $540.00 per year. in P1869 of $135.00 that we are now PM“ lrtg, beiniz a saving of 8405-00 9r year, The cost of this installa on was somewhat 1955 than 36.000000 We considered the safety of our Nurses. our staff. and our Dfltielii-st could not be measured in dollars and emu, p0 decided to borrow the necessary funds. Your trustees were unanimous in this decision and I cannot not feel that the general public will commend us for this action. I would feel remiss in my duties it I 11111 not take this oimorttmltv of eltplfssing my apltffliifliifln f" the great, assistance that. was giv- en us by Mr. Beer in this tinder- [gkln]. Hi5 suggestions, in the first place. showed us the way out. and his practical advice helped us very materially. Tile installation was made by the Worcester Fire lbtflncill-ihtif Company 0f Montreal. and we have naught but praise for the exceed- inigly satisfactory manner in which they completed a difficult Job. AS s citizen of Summerslde. interested in its welfare, 1 woul d welcome, serious problem for more installations of this kind. for, they are a protection to the town as a whole, by very materially m. Cluclng the fire hazard. New Equipment We havo added quite a number 01f it/ems to our equipment, this year. but the one of outstanding importance and of public interest ls, undoubtedly, the I1"on Lung, presented to us by 14ml Nutmeg-l, The function of this machine l5 w produce artificial respiration, until such time as the patient is able to perform natural breathing. In cases of Infantile Paralysis, it is particularly useful. and is of enor- mous help in cases of drowning and cltjctrocutions. This very gm- clous gift of Lord Nuffield is an- flihfr Sfl-fegliard for the residents of "Hr 6011110’. and is an assurance that the Hospital is now equipped to_ properly function in cases of is nature. We are under g, deep debt of gratitude to his Lordship. Eight Nurses Graduate The fact that this year eight. of our Nurses are receiving their dip- lomas. is an indication that the Hospital is expanding its activities and iS growing in stature and im_ oortance. We can truthfully say that these young ladies are an- nther of the safeguards that makes life lust a little surei" and safer for one and all of us. The training they have received is an excellent 011G. and they ctttitake on the bur- den of responsibility when leaving the sheltering ivalls of the Hos- nitnl with confidence and assur- ance in the fact that what they have been taught is what they will uTEQUITG to make a. success of their chosen profession.
