Equipment
The nurses are still anxious to be supplied with some kind of
lifting apparatus
One lifting hoist is in use in Tottenham and both nurses and
patients have benefited greatly since its installation This
hoist was bought privately and has resulted in visits to this
patient being necessary much less frequently then formerly when
two people were required twice daily
Allocation of Work
The method of allocating work to the nurses has remained unchanged
and has proved satisfactory in meeting the needs of the
patients The smooth running of this service is due mainly to
the very good team spirit amongst the nurses, to their willingness
to work at unusual hours and their skilful improvisation to meet
the patients' needs
The service has again received excellent support and help
from the voluntary services the British Red Cross Society the
Women' s Voluntary Service and the Old People s Welfare Association
