PRIVATE HOSPITALS.
(Per Press Association.) CHIUSTCHURCH, May 13. Dr. Finch, District Health Officer, states that there are 45 nursing homes in tho Canterbury Health District, fourteen of which are known to the Department in this city. Of these twelve have been licensed or have been recommended to be licensed. In licensing these private ho* pilals the Deportment depended on the references from medical men to • large extent, and on inspection from linio to time. As the necessity for these placc9 being lieentcd liecame more generally known by the public, there was no doubt that patients at them who had complaints regarding the manner in which they were conducted, would probably communicate with the Department. Any license granted by the Department had nothing to do with mental cases, as institutions for the treatment of mental patients have to be ticensed under another Act.
