HAZELTON HOSPITAL REPORT

As a matter of economy, principably, the Training Schoot ‘fur... Nurses has been discontinued as from September 20th last. Our seven, bupil nurses, Misses Robinson, Bolivar, Gazeley, Mussallem, Glass, Greig”

and Dannheur, were accepted by the Royal. Coinmbian Hospital at New

_ Westminster where they will complete thelr training.

Our nursing staff now consists of Miss Craig, matron, and Misses Ford, Eilefson, Camphell, Willan, ‘Wrinch and Haines,. These are ail graduates and hold B. C. licenses, With the. assistance. of three w- -d

maids they are handling the work most efficiently.

There have been no other changes in the staff, and the work is

running very smoothly, During the summer months an extra man for part time will be required to help in the vegetable garden and fields, from which a very valuable portion of the food supplies are derived.

BUILDINGS AND REPAIRS

Very ‘little was done to the buildings last year, it being deemed advisable to ascertain just how the current income would meet current requirements of actual operation. The experience of the year prover the wisdom of this, particularly in view of the over-expenditnre of the preceeding year, . ‘There was a credit balance of $715.71 out of the Year’s operations.. This is not a large amount, but has: served to dem- onstrate that the institution was nble to carry on under adverse conili- tions. . moe ‘Some necessary repairs and upkeep of buildings must be given at- tention very soon. The foundation posts.of the Medical Superintendents residence, whieh: was’ built in 1908, must be replaced: this year. This building and the Nurses Residence should be repainted. A building that accommodates meat room, ice house, store room and coal shed is in bad

repnir and should be rebuilt. -Also the stock barn should have its wogd- ~

en basement walls replaced by conerete.

It is not probable that this can all be done this yenr, in view ot the 10 per cent. reduction being made in some of the income grants,’ but the need for them cannot be overlooked. ‘The house foundations must be

attended to. Other matters will have to receive attention in order of

irgency aml as finances permit.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

It is with a feeling of profound relief that we find on closing our books ut the end of the year 1982, that we have been able to earry on

the full twelve months and to report at the end a small excess of rp--

ceipts over expenditures. This is not claiming that all has been don. that could or should have been. Some very necessary repairs to some buildings have been postponed in order that the essentials of wages, food, light, heat and medical supplies shonld not be Short. It has been 2 year of tense strain because of the feeling of extreme uncertainty as

’ to what the future might hold for our institution. In this we were on

a par with all other organizations, and business interests. And in com- mon with them the Board felt it shoutd not lay out money for any but absolute essentials.

This policy is reflected in n compayison of financial statements of the past two years, for, while the ersh income of 1932 showed a drop of: $7807.81 from that of 1931, the cash expended was $11,471.24 below the preceeding year. This comparison shows therefore a net greater re- duction of expenditures in relation to receipts in the sum of $3663.43. This amount corresponds very closely to the amount spent in 1081 in extensions und repairs of buildings, upon which items ouly a trifling iunoannt was expended last year.

The vross veduetion in cash receints nnd expenditures was, to a livge extent, due to the lower attendance of patients during 1932. To a lesser degree this is to be accounted for also by a reduction of staft, reductions of suluries, lover prices of some food stuffs, and closing of Trining school,

Itemized details uppear in the appended financial statement and lulance sheet. From an exaumiuntion of these it will be noted that there ix at falling off of net assets of $9760.00 from the 1931 statement, Items in explanation of this ure depreciation on buildings, $5,000; an amount written off accounts receivable, $3650: insurance paid in advance, $675 less than last year, The items also “supplies on hand $1715” includes only products of the farm, feed on hand for stock for balance of the winter, and fuel. A further amount of $1500 wonld be a conservative estimate of value of other food supplies, laundry supplies, medical and surgical supplies and farm stock. ;

THE WORK OF THE LADIES

The aboye report of the Women's Auxiliary to the Hazelton Hos- tal is entively too brief to carry any adequate iden of the amount. of

work performed. and of the scope of activities carried ont by these ©

Indies in the interests of the work of onr institution. | Tn view of the extreme difficulty in rrising money for philan- thrapig purposes at the present time, the results obtained in that par- ticular ave romarkable, Too much cannot be said tn. apprecintion of these efforts, .
