mainly clue to the early treatment of the Maternity and
Child Welfare cases, and the supervision kept over the
minor deformities. The Clinic is made available to
cases attending the Maternity and Child Welfare centres
and many children are thus corrected before entry to
school. The Clinic provides an Orthopaedic Surgeon who
attends twice monthly, a Masseuse who holds five sessions
a week, remedial exercises, and a Sunlight Clinic twice
weekly. Cases requiring hospital treatment are admitted
to the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital at Stanmore.
