Nursing Homes.
There are no Nursing Homes in the Borough registered by the
County Council under the Nursing Homes Registration Act, 1927
(now Part XI of the Public Health (London) Act, 1936).
There are two Exempted Premises, viz., St. Barnabas Home,
14, Lloyd Square, W.C., and St. Faith's Home, 2, Myddelton
Square, E.C. This latter is a home for unmarried mothers. At
the request of the County County, all the medical practitioners
in the neighbourhood have been asked to report to the Department
or direct to the County Council any unregistered nursing homes
of which they were aware.
