Medical Inspections in Nursery Schools and Classes.
From February, 1945, the clerical arrangements for medical inspection and
following up work have been carried out by the Maternity Department. As
these children are all under five years of age it was important that a new
scheme be introduced to enable a link up between the medical records at the
Infant Welfare Centres and those at the Nursery Schools and Classes.
Thirty-three medical inspections were arranged during the year, and in
addition the Health Visitor/School Nurses carried out routine visits of inspection
to the children.
Fees Collected.
£2,979 6s. 2d. was taken for the sale of food in Clinics and £2,838 15s. 0d.
collected for fees for the various services connected with the Department.
