1. Isolation Hospital.—Treatment of cases of infectious
disease is carried out at the Clayponds Isolation Hospital, which
is under the control of the Chiswick and Ealing Hospitals Committee.
During the year the first part of the extensions of this hospital
were completed and a detailed account of the new accommodation
is given in the Annual Report on the Hospitals, which forms an
Appendix to this Report.

for 43 patients and when it is opened the present Hospital at
South Ealing will be discontinued and the buildings will form a
part of the Clayponds Isolation Hospital.
