Boarding out of Child Contacts.
It not infrequently happens that parents, more particularly
the mothers, feel that they cannot undertake a period of residential
treatment because there would be no one left at home to
care for the children in their absence. In certain circumstances
arrangements are made through the Public Assistance Department
for such children to be cared for in the Children's Homes
at Aldersbrook, after the children have been examined and found
to be free from the disease.
I should be lacking in my duty were I not to express my deep
sense of gratitude to the Nurses and the Clerical Staff for their
ever ready help and constant co-operation, which have played no
little part in the successful working of the Clinic.
