the number of attendances was at first very small but gradually increased, and
during last quarter (i.e., the first quarter in 1921) the number of new patients was 24
and the number of attendances was 106. The excellent services of the dentist,
Mr. Cecil 0. Gray, were much appreciated by the patients.
Nursing Arrangements.
Nursing arrangements have been made with the Metropolitan Nursing Association,
No. 23 Bloomsbury Square for the nursing, when required, of necessitous cases
of measles, whooping cough, ophthalmia neonatorum, diarrhoea and pneumonia.
Fortunately there was no epidemic of measles, german measles or whooping cough,
so that the cases requiring nursing were comparatively few, and only 488 visits were
made by the nurses of the Association, viz :—
Measles 12 Cases 242 Visits
Whooping Cough 3 „ 39 ,,
Ophthalmia
Neonatorum 9 „ 192 ,,
Pneumonia 2 ,, 15 „
Total 26 Cases 488 Visits
