March 31st, 1913. Hornsey agrees to pay to Finchley an
annual contribution of £125 towards the establishment expenses,
and £2 2s. per week per patient up to the first 50
cases received in any one year, and £3 3s. per week for each
patient beyond 50 received in that year. The use of the
Finchley ambulance is included. No beds are guaranteed, but
patients will be received according to the accommodation
available.
Isolation of Patients suffering from
Other Infectious Diseases.
The arrangement with the Hornsey Borough Council for
the reception in the Coppett's Road Hospital of Finchley
patients suffering from Scarlet Fever, Diphtheria, or Enteric
Fever expired on March 31st, 1913. On account of the unavoidable
delay in commencing the new Joint Hospital which
Finchley and Hendon have decided to build, a new agreement
has been entered into between Finchley and Hornsey,
whereby the latter agrees to take patients suffering from Scarlet
Fever, Diphtheria, Enteric Fever, and Acute Poliomyelitis
into the Coppett's Road Hospital. No beds are guaranteed,
but cases will be received as long as there is available accommodation.
Finchley agrees to pay an inclusive charge of seven
shillings per day per patient. The use of the Hornsey ambulance
is included. The arrangement is to continue for two
years at least.
