Council during 1964, are now as detailed below.
MATERNITY AND CHILD WELFARE
Ante-Natal Clinics
Regular sessions for expectant mothers are held at the health clinics by doctors
and mid wives. Arrangements are made for blood testing, chest X-rays and for
distribution of iron and vitamins. Mothers are also given the opportunity of attending
ante-natal exercises and mothercraft classes. During the year 2,197 expectant mothers
attended clinics in Ealing.
Child Welfare Clinics
Advice to mothers on the care of their children is given at Health Clinics by
doctors and health visitors. There are seven medical officers and 24 health visitors
engaged in this work in Ealing. Children are weighed at each attendance and a
careful watch kept on all aspects of their progress. Welfare and other foods are
distributed. In addition to the clinic work, home visiting by health visitors forms a
useful link with the clinics. During the year 8,041 children attended clinics in Ealing.
