The medical history required for Juvenile Employment cards is taken from the medical
inspection records in the Health Department. Where, through absence from medical inspection,
up-to-date medical records do not exist, the cases are summoned to the Inspection Clinics
and the necessary data obtained.
Occasionally special cases are referred to the Medical Officers for advice as to physical
fitness and suitable employment.
22. SPECIAL ENQUIRIES.
See Dr. Roberts' report on pages 13 to 21 with regard to vision testing, and her report
on pages 21 to 24 on the treatment of ear defects.
23.–MISCELLANEOUS.
Forty-five teachers were medically examined during the year in connection with their
appointments on the teaching staff of the Authority.
Eighty-eight candidates for scholarships at the Spring Grove Central School were also
examined.
Under an arrangement with the Middlesex County Council and the Central Association
for Mental Welfare we have undertaken the annual medical inspection of children attending
the Hounslow Occupation Centre. Eleven children were examined during 1932, and 2
of these were found to need treatment on account of dental caries. Both received treatment
at the School Dental Clinic.
