During the year the Acton and Wembley Joint Hospital was
handed over to the Middlesex County Council as a maternity annexe
to the Central Middlesex County Hospital, and the infectious disease
cases occurring in Acton are now treated in the South Middlesex
Fever Hospital at Mogden. Towards the end of 1946, there was an
extensive epidemic of Measles in the Borough.
•
Miss B.. G. Sorlie, one of the, Health Visitors, who had given
17 years conscientious service to the Borough, retired on the 31st
May, 1946, and Miss N. Daniells left on the 20th October to enter
the service of the Shoreditch Borough Council.
By the end of 1946, all those members of the Health Department
and School Health Services in the Armed Forces had returned to
their civilian duties with the Council.
I should like to thank all members of the department for their
co-operation during the year, and especially I should like to call
attention.to the work of Dr. Madeley during my absence in the
Forces.
Your Obedient Servant,
G. E. B. PAYNE.
