REPORT OF CITY HOSPITAL


REPORT OF THE BOARD OF MANAGERS


To His Honor the Mayor and the President and Members of the City Council :


GENTLEMEN :- The Board of Managers of the Hospital Depart- ment respectfully submits its report for the year ending De- cember 31, 1928.


We desire to call your attention to the large number of pa- tients admitted to the hospital during the year 1928, as shown in the Superintendent's report.


There has never been a time when the needs of the hospital were so great as now, and we must have additional buildings and equipment to properly take care of our citizens.


We sincerely hope that the request for additional borrowing capacity, now before the Massachusetts Legislature, will be granted, and that the money for a new ward building will be available in the near future.


Our new department, Physiotherapy, the equipment for which was a gift to the hospital, has been of great benefit to many pa- tients, and we believe that its use will increase rapidly.


We gratefully acknowledge your hearty cooperation, the gen- erous contributions and the active and helpful interest of the hos- pital aid associations, the churches and other organizations of the city, and the many words of appreciation and suggestions from our patients and friends.


The financial statement of the operations of the past year, to- gether with the report of the Superintendent, are annexed here- to.


CHARLES A. PRICE, Chairman, MAURICE P. SPILLANE, Secretary, GEORGE TAYLOR, ERNEST B. NEAL, JOSEPH A. DASHA.

The growth of the City can easily be seen in the increase of work in the hospital. The new building that was opened in June and also the Nurses' Home that was opened in May 1927, are taxed to their utmost. Not only are the number of beds inade- quate, but the Surgical, Obstetrical and X-ray departments are proving far too small for the work that must be done in them. I sincerely hope that the city fathers will see their way clear to give us the relief that is necessary to carry on the demands of a city this size.


We were fortunate in being the recipient of new equipment with which we opened a Physio-therapy department. The equip- ment consists of :


Ultra Violet-Air cooled


Ultra Violet-Water cooled


Infra-Red Lamp


High Frequency-Diathermy


Selective Wave Generator


Deep therapy-Lamp Electric Vibrator


The approximate cost of the above is $4,000. The department is doing good work, as will be seen by its separate report.

In behalf of the doctors and patients I wish to thank the donor most heartily.


To the members of the Quincy and Wollaston Hospital Aids we are deeply indebted and thank them for their kindness to the nurses and patients and for the sewing they have done. To the different churches and social societies we extend our thanks for their thoughtfulness and acts of kindness during the year.


In closing please let me express my sincere thanks to the Mayor, the Board of Managers, members of the doctors staff and the nursing staff for their loyal support.


Respectfully submitted,


RUTH J. ADIE, R.N., Superintendent.
