CARE OF CRIPPLES
SOME NEEDED HOSPITAL EXTENSIONS. SOCIETY GIVES EVIDENCE IN WELLINGTON. (By Telegraph—Press Association). WELLINGTON, This Day. The views of the Wellington branch of the New Zealand Crippled Children Society were placed before the Royal Commission inquiring into the matter of accommodation and arrangements for the care and treatment of patients by the Wellington hospital. Mrs Knox Gilmer, president of the branch and M. J. Meltzer, secretary, presented a statement in which it was urged that there should be available a complete modern orthopaedic hospital, including modern facilities for physiotherapy and occupational therapy, also an efficient and well organised hospital school and vocational training workshop, including a splint shop. Associated with any orthopaedic hospital there should be a number of orthopaedic clinics and for economical and efficient work such hospital and clinics must be within easy reach of a patient’s home.
