Well Child Clinic and Visiting Nurse Association Report
1950 witnessed another successful undertaking of the Wilbraham Health Program. The Annual Well Child Conference was held the week of May 1st through the 5th. Dr. Hazel Richards and Dorothy McCall, R.N., conducted the clinic. Dr. Bertha Hatt was present one day during Dr. Richards' absence.
Mrs. Bernice Chapin, Dental Hygienist, examined the children's teeth. She was happy to report very few requiring dental care and the majority of these were already being attended to. Miss Judith Masterson, Nutritionist from Central Massachusetts Electric Com- pany, discussed dietary and nutritional problems with the parents.
Miss Luella I. Young, R.N. from the Hampden County Tuberculosis and Public Health Association gave the Patch Tuberculin Test to 73 with only one positive reaction.
The need for generalized bedside nursing service remains high and it has been a pleasure to work among so many cooperative and con- genial townspeople.
386 cases were given service with a total of 1368 visits made to the homes for nursing, orthopedic and maternity care, and 517 visits in Infant and Child Health Supervision. At the Association's established rate of $1.75 per visit in 1950, this service is valued at $3,298.75. This cost to the Association was partially offset by collections amount- ing to $1,787.39.
221/2 days, including the 41/2 days in the Conference, were spent in working with the parents of small children. I was happy to notice so many parents following through on the suggested recommendations. A notable number have received toxoid during the year.
Under the leadership of chairman Mrs. Carl Nelson, the Child Welfare Committee did well in providing transportation as needed and in assisting with Conference routine. They also arranged sched- ules and transportation for interim toxoids.
