Staff.
99
The vacancies for two Sanitary Inspectors created by the
retirement of Mr. Brown and the superannuation of Mr. Haworth
have not been filled.
Miss B. P. Manning resigned her appointment as Health
Visitor in July. Miss Dean, one of the Tuberculosis Visitors,
has been transferred as a Health Visitor under the Maternity and
Child Welfare scheme.
Mr. G. Lovett, the Vaccination Officer for Clapham and
Wandsworth, retired in June after 29 years service in this capacity.
Instead of filling this vacancy, the Council decided to appoint
me Vaccination Officer for these two districts of the Borough,
so that the duties in connection with Vaccination would be coordinated
with the other services carried out by the Department,
especially those relating to Maternity and Child Welfare.
Most of the Home visiting required is carried out by the
Health Visitors, each Officer being responsible for visiting those
infants who reside in her district.
If the service of a default notice on Form K. is required, this
duty is carried out by the district Sanitary Inspector.
I regret to report that Dr. J. T. Thyne, Public Vaccinator
for Wandsworth No. 2 district, died during the year. Dr. H. A.
Topalia has been appointed to this district.
Mr. J. Marshall, Third Class Clerk, has qualified as a Sanitary
Inspector and Miss J. Pottinger, Health Visitor, has obtained
the Health Visitor's Certificate granted by the Ministry of Health.
In conclusion, I wish to express my appreciation of the excellent
manner in which the staff have carried out their duties
throughout the year.
I am,
Your obedient Servant,
F. G. CALEY.
