Early in the year the Council arranged to pay for certain
nursing services given by these Associations. Cases have been
referred to the Associations from the various clinics, the Medical
Officer advising the treatment required and indicating when the
patient should be seen again.
This facility has been a valuable adjunct to the Council's
clinic services, and often appropriate nursing treatment at the
early stages has prevented the necessity of attendance, say, at
the out-patient department of a hospital later.
