HOME HELF SERVICEo
The Home HelF Service Frovides domestic helF in time
of illness. All normal household duties, including shoFFing,
cooking, washing, cleaning, and looking after
children are undertaken. There is an equivalent of 149
full-time home helFs in Ealing. At the end of the year
there were over 885 cases receiving helF. The order of
Friority is acute sick, maternity cases5 tuberculosis and
chronic sick and aged. Nevertheless, over 75% of those
helFed were old FeoFle. Fayment is based on the Fatient9s
resources and ranges from no charge to 4/6d. Fer hour.
The object of the service is to suFFlement assistance
available from relatives etc., and to tide Fatients over
in emergency rather than suFFly Fermanent domestic helF.
During the year the night service was continued. Attendance
is from 11 F.m. to 7 a.m. and the duties of the
helFer consist of sitting with and giving general care to
the Fatient. This has Froved most valuable.
AFFlications for the services of either a day or
night home helF should be made, accomFanied by a medical
certificate, to the Area Medical Officer, Town Hall Annexe,
Ealing, W. 5.
