4g a q ': Children’s Hospital was presented with cheques totalling $10,116.25 in aid of the development of new programs in child care at the recent B.C. Moose Association mid-winter conference held in Rich- mond, Mary DesRoches, public relations officer at Children’s Hospital ac- cepted a cheque for $846.25 from Mr. John Zak, secretary of Terrace Lodge No. 1820, Loyal Order of Moose. The dollars collected for March of Dimes help Childrén’s Hospital in many ways. The most, important of which are programs and -services which are not funded by the Provincial Government, Among the many important services and programs which depend solely on March of Dimes for funding is the Newborn Screening Program which operates at a cost of $20,000 per year. The purpose of this program is to take urine tests of every baby born in British Columbia. (Ap- proximately 95 percent are now covered by means of a kit supplied to all new mothers.) Early alerting to amino acid abnormalities that are detected during the first three months of life through these tests can he neutralized by proper. diet and medication resulting in the prevention or reduction of serious irreversible damage to the central nervous system. Another program is the Dental, which requires $23,800 to operate this year. The purpose of this program is to provide a free dental service to children of low income families whose parents cannot afford to pay for dental services for their children. Last year 2,608 children received treatment through the dental program. Approximately 44 dentists provide this service free to the children on the program. Children’s Hospital Diagnostic Centre is another important program sup- ported by March of Dimes. The Diagnostic Centre of- fers a new pattern of care for children. It is a one sto unit for evaluation an assessment of multi- handicapped youngsters. Last year alone the centre provided treatment for over 5,400 children. The cost of operating the Diagnostic Centre for 1977 is budgeted at $79,385, These are ser- vices not covered by the government at the centre. Your dollars go towards the support of the Breast Milk Bank at the hospital. The hospital supplies breast milk to all infants requiring this service to hospitals across the province. The breast milk is donated by breast feeding mothers who have more milk than their own infants need. The milk is picked up by the hospital ; pasteurized and frozen until ready to use. This service has helped many young infants and premature babies throughout British Columbia who could not tolerate anything other than breast milk. These babies would not have survived without this service. As a result of the closure of the pediatric unit at St. Paul's Hospital, it was necessary for Children’s Hospital to provide an improved coverage in our Emergency Department. This program is funded and supported by March of Dimes dollars. Unfinished space under the hospital’s Care By Terrace Moose Lodge helps Children's Hospital Parent Unit has been converted to serve as Ambulatory Clinics. These new clinics are providing service for the disciplines of surgery, neurology and psychiatry. This is a major n to Children’s Hospital and again March of Dimes money is lending support to this area. It is essential that small children who are patients in the hospital, participate in an organized play program. This activity reduces the trauma of hespitalization as well as that .of separation from parents and family. The Playroom Program which costs $22,708 to operate is supported totally by your dollars. Research carried out at Children’s Hospital inte the development of new programs in child care and improved methods in the delivery of health care to children is made possible through March of Dimes contributions. It may be of interest to note it was because of research studies we developed, the following rograms have radically proved the delivery of health care to children: (1) Day Care Surgery (b) ildren’s Hospital Diagnostic Centre (c) Care by Parent Unit and program (d) Ambulatory Unit (e) Special studies of groups of handicapped children with multiple diseases who have been assessed at the Children's © ‘Hospital Diagnostic Centre. The purpose of these studies is to improve the program in the Diagnostic ‘Centre related to a specific group of children, such as those with hearing disorders or blind- ness. - - Breaker...breaker A few interested cBers have asked for information about various dances, jamborees, etc. that are Coming up, so hereis a list of the events that I am aware of.
