Visits
Apart from the usual visits by nurses from King's College Hospital and
Guy's Hospital, visitors to the Centre have included twenty-five Southwark Social
Workers, seventy Spanish Medical Students and thirty Dutch doctors from the
Educational Interchange Council, doctors from Japan, China and Canada and
architectural students.
Meetings
Six lunch time meetings of general practitioners held within this period
were well attended. A series of afternoon meetings were held at which eight
Tyne Tees films of broadcasts to medical audiences were reviewed on behalf of
the British Medical Association to select films to be purchased for their circulation
library. Several lunch time meetings on the subject of "Battered Babies"
were held at the Centre, attended by representatives from the Welfare Department,
Metropolitan Police, N.S.P.C.C., King's College Hospital, Guy's Hospital
and local general practitioners. The meetings were very satisfactory and will
now be continued on a larger scale at King's College Hospital. The South East
London Obstetric Society, the South London Faculty of the Royal College of
General Practitioners and the "Psychiatric Club" have continued with their
evening meetings and regular meetings of the Medical Staff Committee and the
House Committee have also taken place.
