Immediate needs of tho School Medical Service.
1) Orthopaedic
2) Dental
The School Clinic built in 1932, has been adequate to the needs of
the service for sixteen years but extensions and developments of the
work in the last year or too in orthoptics, speech-therapy and
dentistry have rendered it too small to-day.
Approval has been given to the building of an Orthopaedic
Department adjacent to the Clinic and to the equipment of a Dental
Clinic in an outlying part of the Borough.
When these are provided and staffed, the service available will
meet present needs.
I have the honour to he,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your obedient servant,
R. P. GARROW,
School Medical Officer.
