done at the Centres and by the Borough Midwife.
Maternity.
During 1932, 192 maternity cases were admitted to the
North Middlesex Hospital from Hornsey.
An arrangement has been made with the Royal Northern
Hospital whereby expectant mothers attending the Welfare
Centre Ante-natal Clinics can be admitted for an inclusive fee
of £4 4s. 0d.
Midwifery.
The Municipal Midwife attended 161 births. A reduction
of her fee was made in 59 necessitous cases. Twelve hundred
and eighty-six births have been attended by the Midwife since
the appointment was first made in 1922.
In view of the increasing call upon the Midwife's services
and her difficulty in making all her visits, the Council in May
made her a car allowance.
X-Ray Treatment.
Only one expectant mother was sent to University College
Hospital from the Ante-natal Clinic for examination.
Milk—Mothers and Children Orders.
Nine hundred and thirty-two applications for milk under this
Order were dealt with during the year, of which 91G were granted
and 16 were refused. The total of the accounts paid to 31st
December amounted to £292 9s. l0d.
