PAGE 12 THURSDAY, MAY 20, 1971 Three new hospitals planned VICTORIA - The provincial government has made its first entry into the field of intermediate health care facilities with a program to build three 150-bed units for welfare recipients in Victoria, Vancouver and Kamloops. Health Minister Ralph Loffmark announced that the facilities will be for persons whose needs cannot reasonably be met in residential boarding homes, but who do not need extensive nursing and the amount of medical care provided in extended care units. The minister made an anneuncement in a press release, It is understood that patients of the intermediate care facilities will not qualify for $1- aday care under the Hospital Insurance Flan. No exact qualifications for persons to be cared for in the facilities have been laid down, it was learned, but they are expected to take patients now in private hospitals, rest homes and those taking up space in -acute care hospitals until more suitable accommodation can be found. Amendments to provincial government regulations last September stated that private hospitals and community care homes for elderly citizens must reserve a third of their accommodation for welfare patients. Loffmark said in the press release that while’ welfare recipients will be accommodated in the new facilities initially it is expected that ‘‘other persons with low incomes will also be included as soon as possible,” The units are intended for those requiring nursing supervision but not 24-hours-a- day nursing care and who also need help with such activities as dressing, washing or bathing. “They will be persons who are. able to move about without much assistance even though they may do this with the help of wheelchairs, canes or walkers,” Loffmark said. The facilities to be constructed will be situated adjacent to Glendale Hospital (for retarded and handicapped persons ) in Victoria, at Pearson Hospital in Vancouver, and near the Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops. Loffmark said that a competition will be opened shortly for the design, planning and construction of the units and for the supply of furniture for the facilities according to a guide to be sety out by the hospital insurance and public works departments. “The facilities will pravide low income groups with a good level of nursing home care in pleasant . surroundings,'’ Loffmark said. $20,000 grant for scientist | A Simon Fraser University scientist who is attempting to blend economics with ecology has received a $20,000 grant from the Canada Council. Dr. David Rapport, currently ' a member of the Simon Fraser Biological Sciences Department, will use the prant tocontinue his research project, begun last fail, Dr. Rapport, who holds a Ph.D. in Economics, hopes he can use economic theory to explain how animals choose their food sources. “In simple terms, you can regard an animal as a customer in-a store, Abundant food is " equivalent to low prices; scarce food is equivalent to high prices.’ . Dr. Rapport said if his project proves successful, ecologists may be able to use economic theory to predict how plants animals will react to changes in their environment. ; “So far the results of the - project appear to be promising,” he said, - The-grant, which is from the Tzaak Walton Killam Memorial a i 1 3 Pkgs. of 8.
