327a8ca7-cd4b-4668-930a-c6507a8dc3e0 | 109 SCHOOL HEALTH SERVICE SCHOOL HEALTH SERVICE Introduction The regular medical inspection of children in attendance at Local Authority Schools continued, any necessary treatment being obtained either at Clinics or through facilities provided under the National Health Services Act, 1946. The School Health Service continued to foster co-operation between Departments of the Authority and outside agencies in regard to handicapped children, and as a further step in this direction, I have arranged that a handicapped child before leaving school shall be discussed at a case conference, to assess the child's ability and advise the welfare agencies and Youth Employment Service of the future needs of these young people. In accordance with the requirements of the Education Act, 1944, 91 children were reported to the Authority during the year as suffering from a disability requiring some form of special educational treatment. School Population The overall increase in the school population for the Borough continued during the year, and the following table shows the position at 31st December, 1969:- Schools No. |

In addition a close contact was maintained between the School Medical Officers and Head Teachers. 113 The following table shows the number of children inspected by years of birth and the state of their physical condition - Year of Birth Number of Pupils Inspected Physical Condition of Pupils Inspected Satisfactory Unsatisfactory 1965 8s later 260 260 1964 1,999 1,997 2 1963 1,585 1, |

b874bc95-9c7f-4d89-9c82-1b0acda833f0 | Ophthalmic Clinics The five school ophthalmic clinics continued to operate at centres dispersed throughout the Borough, with ophthalmologists provided by the North West Metropolitan Regional Hospital Board and at Central Hendon Clinic and Vale Drive Clinic an orthoptic service is provided. Audiometry Two Audiometer Operators carry out three routine hearing tests during the school life of those children in the Borough attending the Authority's schools and also test, as special cases, those children suspected of having a hearing loss 114 The following Table shows the number of pupils whose hearing was tested:- Sweep tests 10,564 Re-tests 654 Special tests 939 Re-tests 268 Audiology Those children requiring further investigation for a loss of hearing are referred to the Consultant Otologist at one of the audiology units established in the London Borough of Haringey and the London Borough of Brent. Peripatetic Teachers for the Deaf attached to these units visit those children in schools in this Borough who are in the care of the units and require supervision or training. |
1b5e9b45-473f-4a16-98f3-3288e1485ddb | It has still not been possible to appoint a Peripatetic Teacher for the Deaf to care locally for those other children who are attending Consultants at the various London Hospitals. During the year 23 school children and one child under school age were provided with hearing aids and at the end of the year 88 school children and 5 children under school age (4 of whom were attending the Local Authority Day Nurseries) were known to have hearing aids. Child Guidance Service Under the joint administrative responsibility of the Chief Education Officer and myself the Local Authority Child Guidance Service operates from centres at:- 304, Regents Park Road, Finchley, N.3. and The Health Clinic, Vale Drive, Barnet, Herts. Dr. A.D. Black, Consultant Child Psychiatrist and Medical Director reports:- "Until September, 1968, this Borough was without a Child Guidance Centre. |
d5b10550-fa3b-4d28-8804-b98820745181 | A School Psychological Service had been in existence for some years, but in September, 1968, a Child and Family Psychiatric Service was initiated at Finchley with a Professional Staff consisting of:- 115 1. A part-time Consultant Psychiatrist and Medical Director (3 sessions per week) 2. Three full-time Psychiatric Social Workers 3. One full-time Psychotherapist and able to make use of the Consultant Services of 4. Three full-time Educational Psychologists who were jointly appointed to the Psychiatric Service and School Psychological Service. A second Clinic is opening at Vale Drive Health Clinic in June, 1970. Since our psychiatric resources have been very limited we decided to concentrate our work on consultative services. We have held regular meetings with School Medical Officers, Health Visitors, Speech Therapists, Education Welfare Officers, Supervisors of Pre-School Play Groups and other community workers. Clinical work has, however, taken up the majority of our time. |
4a7d2a4b-63fb-4765-bb34-ae2717e30ea4 | In the year ending 31st August, 1969, 369 children and their families were referred to the Clinic, of these we accepted 322 and were able to suggest to the referrer ways of seeking help for the others whom we were unable to accept. In some cases we contacted other psychiatric Clinics, who agreed to see children whom we were unable to see. We have also been able to offer a limited service to the Courts who have asked us to see children for psychiatric assessment and court reports. Origin Total Referral Agency No. (Assistant Medical Officer 86 ( (Educational Welfare Officers 14 School Services 178 ( (Educational Psychologists 51 ( (Schools 27 (General Practitioners 37 Other Medical Services 80 ( (Other Clinic and Hospitals 43 (Probation Officers 11 Other Social Services 18 ( (Child Care Officers 7 Direct 46 Parents 86 Adolescents 46 TOTAL 322 TOTAL 322 116 This table shows the main sources of our referrals. |
0c9e384f-9350-4d6b-8e2d-b281ac89b467 | It will be seen that the majority of our referrals come from the School Health Service and the School Psychological Service, either directly or indirectly. Other medical referrals form the next largest group, as many coming from other Hospitals and Clinics as have come from General Prattitioners. In line with most other Child Guidance Clinics and the Underwood Committee recommendations, we accept direct referrals from parents although we in all cases request permission to contact the General Practitioners. This is rarely refused. Diagnostic Categories The largest number are classified as anti-social conduct disorders, neurotic illnesses and the primary behaviour disorders of childhood. There is a small but significant number of children with depressive illnesses, with psychotic illnesses of the schizophrenic type and autism. We have seen a small number of children with psychosomatic illnesses and we are increasingly recognising children with brain damage and brain dysfunction. Much emotional and behavioural disturbance in childhood is however multi-factorial in origin. |
ab560588-08d6-4a76-abae-62b3fc87e8aa | Treatment Drug Therapies We make use of drug therapies to alter mood and aggressive behaviour in particular, to sedate and tranquillise anxious and hyper-active children; in the treatment of nocturnal enuresis, and in psychosis. Environmental Manipulation Environmental manipulation involving casework with parents and counselling of teachers; placement in a special environment. Psychotherapy Various forms of psychotherapy are the mainstay of our therapeutic armamentarium but our psychotherapeutic sources are extremely limited. All the professional staff at the Clinic are involved in psychotherapeutic work with children, parents and whole family groups. We recognise however that even if our staff were to be doubled in size we would not be able to meet the therapeutic needs of the community and in common with other Child Guidance Clincs are exploring newer methods of treatment and prevention. |
dcc99bcd-596e-4f2b-901b-7c63444f9c41 | Crisis Consultation We are particularly interested in developing a Crisis Consultation Service as we feel there is a real opportunity to help families at the point of crisis and thus possibly prevent some of the pathological long term effects known to ensue from inadequately worked-through situations of overwhelming grief, or anxiety, such as in bereavement or traumatic events. We give priority to young children referred to us, to children with school refusal and children with behaviour disorders following the death of a parent, in order to try to offer crisis therapy where appropriate. 117 The setting up of the Child Guidance Centre has revealed the necessity in this Borough for a service for handicapped children, in particular children who are maladjusted, or who have multiple handicaps. There is a great need for day and boarding placement for severely maladjusted children within the Borough. There is a need of a wide range of both medical and non-medical placements for children coming to the Clinic. |
bbd4eaca-89fd-4412-b62b-d27188e38bcd | Many multi-problem families are referred to us whose needs could much more adequately be met by a Family Service Unit if one existed in the Borough. % Conclusion Comparing the figures of children referred to our psychiatric services in the Borough with those at other boroughs, with longer established child guidance clinics it is clear that an unsatisfied demand for psychiatric services exists in the Borough. I think it is unlikely that our high referral rate is an artefact due to the fact that we are getting children referred who have been waiting some years for help, nor can we hope that the numbers referred will drop off significantly. What is more important, the number of children referred with acute disturbances is increasing, and these are the children who may be helped most economically with short term or family group therapy. Even if the staffing establishment in Child Guidance Centres within the Borough is increased, it is unlikely that the needs of disturbed children within the Borough will be adequately met from these Centres alone. |
2bfd975b-b72f-4f79-8803-4ae9310543ac | The staff of Child Guidance Centres must spend time increasingly therefore in working with people in the community who are involved with children, particularly parents, teachers, doctors, nurses and social workers, in order to help raise the level of therapeutic skills and also increase the Borough's range of preventive services, in the hope this will lessen the number of children who need help." Speech Therapy There are five whole-time speech therapists employed by the Authority who undertake sessions within the School Health Service at clinics and in the Day Special Schools and Junior Training Schools in the Borough. The diagnosis and treatment of speech and language disorders is the responsibility of the speech therapists who give advice to parents and teachers so that treatment can be continued outside the ilinic sessions. During the year a total of 618 children received treatment and supervision. National Child Development Study There has been a second follow-up of children born in the week 3rd to 9th March, 1958. |
6507d699-0bc6-4dfc-89f8-3c8d57d1e1b1 | The survey is intended to gather information about the educational progress, health, physical development and home background of these children and, for this purpose 56 children in the Borough were examined by Medical Officers and parental 118 interview forms were completed by the Nursing Staff. The results of these investigations have been sent to the Study's Senior Research Officer for analysis. Handicapped Pupils The various categories of handicapped pupils are defined by The School Health Service and Handicapped Pupils Regulations, 1959, as follows:- Blind Epileptic Partially Sighted Maladjusted Deaf Physically Handicapped Partially Hearing Delicate Educationally Subnormal Children suffering from Speech Defects Section 34 of the Education Act, 1944, makes it a duty of the Local Education Authority to ascertain what children in the area require special educational treatment and to provide such treatment either in special school or, otherwise, by special methods appropriate to the handicap of the particular child. The Authority maintains three special schools for handicapped children. |
7517eb8c-0f3c-44df-b214-23caea4d6033 | Oak Lodge Day Special School for Educationally Subnormal Pupils, Oak Lane, East Finchley, N.2. Northway Day Special School for Educationally Subnormal Pupils, The Fairway, Mill Hill, N.W.7. Swaylands Residential Special School for Educationally Subnormal Boys, Penshurst, Tonbridge, Kent. Children with handicaps in other categories are found placement by the Chief Education Officer in special schools maintained by other authorities or independent bodies. Future provisions for special education in the Borough, as outlined in the Education Development Plan, includes two Day Special Schools for Maladjusted Children and a Day Special School for Delicate/Physically Handicapped Children. Also envisaged in the plan is the provision of a Residential Special School for Maladjusted Boys by means of future extensions to Swaylands School. |
66855b7d-afb5-4eac-824f-b68c5c5c6029 | There appears to be a general shortage of Special School places in England and Wales and the latest report of the Chief Medical Officer of the Department of Education and Science shows that for every 6-7 children in Day Special Schools and every 2-3 children in Residential Special Schools there is one child still requiring to be placed in that type ot school I am concerned that this Authority is now experiencing difficulty in obtaining Da> Spec ial School placements for handicapped children, 119 particularly the deaf, partially hearing and physically handicapped requiring special educational treatment. There are also children in ordinary schools who would benefit from the less rigorous regime and medically beneficial atmosphere of a Day Special School for Delicate Children, but the long journey, twice daily, to the nearest school of this kind makes such a recommendation pointless. |
8632af33-76f1-40c8-8463-cab45f533990 | When leaving school handicapped children, having been educated either in Special School or having had some other special educational treatment, have greater problems regarding future employment and social adjustment than other school children, and it becomes apparent that the majority of them require the continual help of the welfare services of the Authority into adult life. In finding suitable work for them the Youth Employment Service should have as much information on their ability as is known to the various Departments of the Authority. Case conferences have therefore been arranged so that the needs of handicapped school leavers can be considered by a panel consisting of the Principal Medical Officer for Mental Health, the Principal Welfare Officer, the Principal Youth Employment Officer and the Borough Childrens Officer or their representatives, together with appropriate Officers nominated by them and the Chief Education Officer. The Principal Medical Officer for Child Health is the Co-ordinating Chairman of the panel, supplying them with all relevant reports and information and recording their decisions, so that when these children leave school consistent advice and continuing support is available. |

This has not been the case over past years and again in 1969. Whilst difficulties in recruitment exist, it is impossible to obtain a full 100% inspection rate. |

Undoubtedly, new and vastly improved standards of environmental, physical and mental health, are within reach, but lack of self control threatens him with disaster. The conquest of many of the current scourges of mankind demand personal participation; they are concerned with the moulding of attitudes and the correction of behaviour, so that we avoid modes of living which are injurious to health and foster those which promote the best standards of health. |
4b2e4723-b9f0-4103-b207-63e909fcc644 | An important aspect of public health is to increase the intelligent responsibilities of the individual for his own health and that of his community. To encourage this area of responsibility in the individual is the prime function of the Health Education Section. Health Education in Clinics Relaxation and Parentcraft Classes The parents understanding of the physical, mental and emotional needs, of full development, of the infant and young child is the aim of the Health Visitors who take classes in relaxation and parentcraft in the clinics. In some instances evening sessions are arranged when husbands can attend with their wives. Also for expectant mothers and their husbands the Swedish film "Barnet" (The Child) was shown on alternate months at two parts of the Borough. Mothers Discussion Groups In an ever changing environment, problems which confront mothers concerning themselves, their children and family life need to be discussed and in the mothers and toddlers groups held in many clinics such an opportunity is afforded. Many health subjects were covered with support given by the Health Education Section. |
19568b9a-1cd9-4e1e-ac40-47136befea07 | Clinics for the Elderly Assistance has been given by the officers of the Health Education Section in the compilation of programmes, suitable for the elderly and in the provision of visual material. These clinics are appreciated by the old folks who enjoy receiving some mental stimulation and an interest outside of themselves. 129 Health Education in Schools Today a child's education is related to living; he learns through the opportunity of reasoning rather than the presentation of facts, and in health education this principle of helping a child to relate biological facts to everyday life and experience has been pursued. Throughout runs the theme that health behaviour is a matter of personal choice. In Primary Schools the syllabus has been arranged to meet the needs of the particular school but in all cases the basic elements of good health i.e. physical, mental and social health and the responsibility of the individual towards this state, have been presented. The pupils in the Secondary Schools have investigated their future responsibility for their own health, their contribution to community health and their role as parents-to-be. |
e477e081-366d-4daa-a7f9-fdfb9b45bc8b | Within this context of health responsibility information was given on the health hazards of today, namely lung cancer, obesity, venereal diseases, drug abuse, mental health and parentcraft. In one school, following a mothercraft course the interest shown in child care by the girls participating resulted in their forming a one afternoon per week play group for toddlers which provided an excellent opportunity for the girls to study child development at first hand. An interesting and very well worthwhile development has been an increased participation in Parent-Teacher meetings, especially to discuss with them the sex instruction which is included within the overall context of health in the school health programme. |
953ae3e9-b51d-4d5e-9d76-2bd04b32e2ab | Below are details of the school courses which were undertaken during the year:- Primary Schools 10 — 11 year old pupils Full Year's Courses 7 Two Term Courses 3 Short Courses 2 8 — 9 year old pupils Two Term Courses 2 Secondary Schools 13 — 15 year old pupils Full Year's Courses 7 Two Term Courses 1 Occasional Talks 3 130 Grammar Schools 16 — 18 year old pupils Short Courses 2 Occasional Talks 5 Special Schools (Educationally Subnormal, Junior Training Schools) Short Courses 2 Health Education in other Organisations Requests were received from time to time from local organisations for talks or films on health topics, and these requests have been met, since education in small groups is most likely to have lasting results. |
7c6efe43-584f-470a-b461-f48fdb07eedd | A synopsis of these talks is given below:- Groups requesting Talks Youth Organisations 39 Women's and Men's Organisations 28 Young Wives Group Parent/Teacher Associations 9 Old People's Groups 12 Synopsis of subjects covered First Aid 6 Child Health 4 Nutrition 2 Sex Education 7 Mental Health 2 Health of the Elderly 11 Home Safety 36 Junior Mothercraft 5 Home Nursing 4 Environmental Health 4 102 Films shows were given. General Publicity With today's overwhelming amount of visual material to be seen wherever one turns one would expect that there is no room for anything further, but the display of posters and the availability of leaflets does provide a useful media for health education. 131 Using this media the monthly programme of health subjects was continued and posters and leaflets covering these subjects distributed to all Borough establishments. For special campaigns, posters were provided for the public notice boards. Special publicity was given for Fireworks and Christmas safety. |
370bc5a4-74e5-4e26-abcc-6c81605081ee | Displays and Exhibitions There was less opportunity for displays this year as the window of Gateway House, 322 Regents Park Road, N.3, was not often available. Displays were exhibited as follows:- July Home Safety Finchley Carnival A float was also entered in the procession August Home Safety The Summer Show October Smoking Gateway House November Fireworks Safety Gateway House Campaigns There were no large scale campaigns organised this year. Other Activities Smokers Advisory Clinic The first clinic to help smokers to relinquish the habit was organised in October using the Five Day Play in co-operation with the British Temperance Society. This was well attended with the final results, obtained after the reunion of participants, giving a 50% success rate. Home Safety General Publicity The quarterly campaigns of R.O.S.P.A. were followed with posters and leaflets being distributed locally. Barnet Civic News The cartoon illustrating "Home Safety Tips" was prepared for each issue of Barnet Civic News. Outside Talks A number of requests for talks on Home Safety was received. |
6fa09ece-7128-45d9-906b-251c897955f2 | These were from a 132 variety of groups, including old people's clubs, young wives groups and youth organisations as well as instruction to St. John's Ambulance Brigade and the British Red Cross Society. Campaigns Disposal of Medicines Campaign This campaign organised to persuade the public to dispose of old medicines and tablets to their local chemist was again organised in April — spring cleaning time. The material returned was collected for disposal, and it was first counted and weighed; some 26,000 tablets were destroyed. An effort was made to identify the tablets in order that the cost of the amount wasted could be assessed but this was considered to be an almost impossible task. The main aim of the campaign was to protect the young and others from the dangers of having medicines and tablets lurking in the homes in the community. Finchley Carnival and the Summer Show These two events again provided a means of promoting Health Education to a captive audience. |
60d7deef-bf38-4536-aa60-50eac0d8de1c | This year the theme of the float in the carnival procession was the "Old Woman who lived in a Shoe" depicting a giant size old boot with children spilling out from it, all involved in some kind of home accident. In the marquee, 40 feet of space was devoted to displays concerning different aspects of home safety, with a moving film-let to attract attention, a game and competition for children; approximately 1,000 children entered during both shows. These occasions are a good opportunity for the distribution of home safety handbooks. Guy Fawkes Night A few days before bonfire night a decorated car with loudspeaker toured certain areas of the Borough urging the public to take care to avoid accidents. This year saw a substantial reduction in the fireworks accident rate, due without doubt to the intense television publicity given, and even the small local effort may have contributed to local results. Inter-Senior-Schools — Home Safety Quiz The Home Safety Quiz in senior schools was launched during the Autumn term. |
c71e187c-ba45-494b-b438-142852b1a031 | All schools were circulated and those entering teams were provided with all home safety information. The preliminary, semi-final and final rounds are planned for the Spring term of 1970. Cliff Richard, star of stage, films and television agreed to act as Question Master for the final round 133 SPECIAL INVESTIGATION CLINIC The Special Investigation Clinic continued to receive a large number of referrals, but although the total number of sessions in 1969 was slightly less than 1968, the average number of patients appointed per session rose from 16 in 1968 to 23 in 1969. There was also a 29% increase in the total number of attendances as compared to 1968 and an approximate 30% increase in the number of discharged patients between the two years. The relapse rate for 1969 was 28% whereas 31% is the total relapse rate for the three years of the clinic's existence. |
97898e8c-602c-4d6d-b0e4-b17dccc1d315 | These figures are good in relation to conditioned learning treatment and are reflected in the good attendance rate at the clinic. There are several research projects operating, and these include studies on intensity/tone conditioning, personality factors, and prognosis, and the relation of over-learning to recurrence of enuresis. Mr. R.K. Turner, voluntary Psychologist at the clinic was awarded the degree of Ph.D. (London) for a thesis concerned with learning theory procedures used in the treatment of Enuresis. Mr. Turner was appointed as Principal Psychologist, Hollymoor Hospital, Birmingham; he does, however, still maintain contact with the clinic and visits at regular intervals. Dr. Young, Deputy Medical Officer of Health, published a paper "The Problem of Enuresis". Ref.(1969) Brit.J.Hosp.Med 2. 628-632. Statistics Year Ending 31.12.69 BOYS GIRLS TOTAL No. |

PERSONS IN NEED OF CARE AND ATTENTION Provision is made under Section 47 of the National Assistance Act 1948 as amended by the National Assistance (Amendment) Act 1951 for securing the necessary care and attention in hospital or other place, e.g. residential accommodation provided under Part III of the Act, for persons who are infirm or suffering from a serious chronic disease and who are unable to give themselves sufficient care nor are receiving it from other sources. |
10d9b7b3-c1ab-47f6-8948-6e5ae284adcd | It became necessary to apply this statute in respect of one case in March 1969, when a man living alone was found to be ill and suffering from gross malnutrition. He persistently refused to enter hospital. A Magistrate's order had to be obtained to compel him to enter Edgware General Hospital where he made a complete recovery and went to live with his sister on his discharge. BURIAL AND CREMATION It is the duty of the local authority under Section 50 of the National Assistance Act 1948 to cause to be buried or cremated the body of any person who has died in or been found dead in the area, in any case where it appears to the authority that no suitable arrangements for the disposal of the body have been or are being otherwise made. The expenses incurred may be recovered from the estate of the deceased person, by death grant subject to the contribution conditions being satisfied, or from any person who for the purposes of the act was liable to maintain the deceased person immediately before death. |
fe7461e6-6542-4690-8e07-703a90c7e40c | Four cremations or burials were carried out during the year. CREMATION CERTIFICATES The Medical Officer of Health, Deputy Medical Officer of Health and a Principal Medical Officer are appointed Medical Referees under the Cremation Acts 1902 and 1952. During the year 1085 Certificates were examined and approved. DOMICILIARY LAUNDRY SERVICE This is a service to assist families to care for the elderly, or to nurse chronically sick people of any age at home. A once a week collection and delivery is dealt with by the Department, and the cleansing and laundering of soiled linen and clothing is carried out at Colindale Hospital. 135 This service is much appreciated by all who use it and thanks are due to the Hendon Group Hospital Management Committee for their co-operation. At the end of the year 35 persons were receiving assistance. MEDICAL ASSESSMENTS AND EXAMINATIONS (Staff Health Service) During 1969 this Service continued to expand. |
40104988-3c0f-4107-aed0-c120e1d8d53b | There was an overall increase in the number of assessments dealt with and in the number of medical examinations carried out. In this latter respect the number more than doubled last year's figure. There was an increase in the number of persons employed under the Disabled Persons' Employment Acts 1944 and 1958 from eight persons in 1968 to twenty persons in 1969; all of these were also medically examined. Fifteen medical examinations were carried out in respect of staff with prolonged absence due to illness and with a view to ascertaining whether or not they were fit to undertake the duties of their posts or to be subject to early retirement. In eleven cases it was found that the staff should be subject to premature retirement on the grounds of permanent ill health.

4d2f31df-f958-4740-a2c0-bc3088dae4b5 | In-Service Training In my report for 1967 I referred to the introduction of a departmental In-Service Training Course which latterly has been held at six month intervals. Since its inception, five series of lectures have been arranged and in addition to a number of staff from other departments, 152 members of the Health and Welfare Department have attended; in the main the proj ect has been acclaimed as a useful contribution to basic training and a worthwhile means of disseminating information on local organisational and administrative policies. |

479099af-882d-49b6-a146-7b5bfbc039f4 | BAR 4 I THE HEALTH AND WELFARE OF THE LONDON BOROUGH OF BARNET 1970 MELVILLE WATKINS, M.R.C.S., L.R.C.P., D.P.H. THE LONDON BOROUGH OF BARNET ANNUAL REPORT OF THE MEDICAL OFFICER OF HEALTH AND PRINCIPAL SCHOOL MEDICAL OFFICER FOR THE YEAR 1970 MELVILLE WATKINS, M.R.C.S., L.R.C.P., D.P.H. Health and Welfare Department, London Borough of Barnet, Gateway House, 322 Regents Park Road, Finchley, N.3, The Mayor, Aldermen and Councillors of the Council of the London Borough of Barnet. It is with pleasure, though somewhat belatedly, that I present my Report on the Health and Welfare services of the Borough for the year 1970. |
2ae8fe2f-b36d-4db1-aa48-4c0275927497 | With the introduction of the Social Services Act 1970 effective from the 1st April, 1971, the year proved to be one of considerable involvements, not the least of which was that of considering staff who would be transferred by reason of the work undertaken by them to the new Social Services Directorate. With a combined Health and Welfare Department which saw the integration of Health and Welfare services under a common executive and management structure, the assimilation of fragmented posts presented many problems for the future Health administration. The organisation of the Department since April 1965 had, I think, proved an efficient and economical one and the services being provided were, having regard to the availability of resources, able to meet the major needs of the community. The developments planned and which had been approved by the Council for Health and Welfare projects were far seeing and formed the nucleus of a realistic service provision in the years to come. For this reason the new Social Services Directorate would have a solid basis of developments on which to build their future structure. |
7f8f539a-caf4-4f30-a1ff-352115938525 | Examples of projects commenced under Health and Welfare were the Old People's Homes to be built at Perryfields, West Hendon, Brunswick Park, New Barnet and Grahame Park. In addition, the planning of a Day Centre for the elderly mentally infirm at Meadowside had been approved in principle and a 60 place workshop for the mentally handicapped was to proceed at Broadfield Estate, Edgware, plus a 150 place adult training centre, a Hostel for the mentally handicapped, and later a day centre for elderly mentally infirm. Other projects for development within the years immediately following 1970 were an Old People's Home at Vale Farm and a Hostel for elderly mentally infirm at Brunswick Park Road, East Barnet. Additional projects planned for Grahame Park were a Welfare Centre for the physically handicapped, etc., and a 60 place Day Nursery. |
881f79d3-707e-492a-91c8-76bb9a06230c | Many other schemes for development of the welfare and mental health services were forecast and though, in some instances, the sites could not be firmly determined, much progress had been made at various levels to further the projects ultimately becoming viable schemes. 1 It is always sad to see the break up of a department which can rightfully claim a fair measure of success, and all I can hope is that the implementation of the new legislation which includes the Chronically Sick and Disabled Persons Act, will provide residential and community services which will meet the needs of the Borough. The problem of homelessness has continued to present difficulties and I envisage that there will always be a demand for additional units of accommodation within the foreseeable future. The conversion of Manor Cottages, Finchley, N.2. to provide additional units should go some way towards relieving the problem. |
76a3777e-a174-47fb-8ce1-8396b6b6e97e | In regard to family planning, 1970 saw considerable progress being made in the provision of a comprehensive service, but here again, it appears obvious to me that this is a service which will continue to expand with ever increasing demands being made. The development of health centres continues and the first one was opened at East Barnet in January, 1970. Although not a purpose built Centre, the extension of the East Barnet Clinic and adaptations made within the premises have provided a most viable unit. The interest of General Medical Practitioners continues and I foresee that in the not too distant future, health centres (purpose built) will be required in a number of districts within the Authority's boundaries and furthermore, there will be a need to extend and equip existing clinics to provide health centre accommodation. This is a priority service insofar as the Government is concerned and the provision of such establishments does much to provide for total health care within the community. |
c83181c6-fce6-47a6-8c0e-73c7be0ad7a0 | From the statistical tables shown on pages 11 to 23 it will be seen that the number of live births has continued the decrease which began in 1964, the corrected birth rate in 1970 having fallen to 12.9 per 1000 population, from 13.2 in 1969. The illegitimate birth rate has increased from 6.9% of all live births in 1969 to 7.4%, reversing the downward trend of the previous four years. There were 57 stillbirths, a rate of 13,7 per 1000 live and stillbirths, as against 50 stillbirths in 1968, a rate of 11.8. The infant (under one year) death rate per 1000 live and stillbirths showed a substantial increase at 17.8 over the 1969 rate of 12.8; the longterm trend however continues to be downward. |
37502640-cc3b-4235-b95a-875fb799cb70 | The neo-natal death rate rose from 8.6 to 13.4, the early neo-natal death rate from 7.2 to 11.2, and the pre-natal death rate (stillbirths and deaths under one week of age) from 23.4 to 24.8. Deaths from all causes decreased from 3,664 in 1969 to 3,582, the corrected rate per 1000 population falling from 10.6 to 10.5. There was no serious outbreak of infectious disease during the year. A number of visits were paid to the Department by representatives of the various professions who were anxious to obtain the views of staff employed in the various divisions of the Department and responsible for particular services. 2 The Minister of State, Health, Lord Aberdare was also a visitor to the Borough in September 1970 and included in his itinerary a visit to East Barnet Health Centre. |
1927a05a-1e39-42e9-a6ba-92b10f643e33 | As I have often said before, for any department to be successful there must be team work and personal involvement of individuals, and during 1970 this was most apparent, and I thank all members of the staff for the part that they played. Finally, I wish to pay tribute to the valuable services rendered by the Voluntary Organisations and voluntary helpers, and to express with deep sincerity my appreciation of the support given to me by the Chairman, Vice-Chairman and members of the Health and Welfare Committee. I also acknowledge with gratitude the continued co-operation of my fellow Chief Officers and their Staffs. |
