MARSTONS MILLS Mrs. Beatrice Lapham 428-8389 Correspondent Those Golden Days Last week was such a pleasant one The skies were clear and bright, The trees that lined the river bank Gave off a briUiant light. The air like sparkling water Tumbling down a mountain side, Made one feel alive and vibrant With an urge to be outside. A pine tree sighing in the wind Leaves drifting to the ground, A biuejay scolding high above Sunlight flickering all around. So much beauty to be savored To be stored for months to come, Bits of animated color Like a Monet painting in the home, And when the chill of winter comes I'm sure we'll all remember, Those golden days so rare indeed Wc shared in late November.

Ouellete, administra- tor of Cape Cod Hospital, in his re- port to the recent annual meeting of trustees, outlined many aspects of the corporation 's growth, its problems and solutions to these oc- curring in the past year. Following are excerpts of that report: "This past year has been referred to as interesting, fabulous, record breaking, impossible. The Out- patient Department with a one month case load of 7,000 patients, equalling the total inpatient ad- missions for the year, emergencies increasing nearly 50 percent over the previous year, vice full-time out patient department physician's in- halation therapy being staffed around the clock, sometimes with a dozen machines functioning and as many as four patients on constant ventilation at one time, i "Our birth rate is continuing to increase as we learn that many hospitals are abandoning this ser- vice. The Coronary Care Unit, with its nine beds, was predicted to be t large for this size hospi.al. In spite of an average stay of about 4.5 days it has been filled to capacity on many occasions. "Six ambulances at oncer have been at the emergency room entr- ance. A medical-surgical occupancy rate of 03.39 percent, patients in corridor beds, closing the hospital to all admissions except emergen- cies for a period of time, 23,400 more meals served this year than last — these are some of the in- dicators of growth and demand. "A very grave shortage of person- nel made it impossible to maintain the hospital's normal standard of janitorial services during the sum- mer months. "The newly acquired building on Bay View Street has helped relieve our space problems. The member- ship office moved into it and im- mediately lost its cramped posture. Its previous locale became the area for phasing moves for purchasing and housekeeping headquarters re- spectively, when they were evicted by the new construclion. "The new 12-month program in the School of Nurshing freed a sec- tion of the nurses' residence and a function of the accounting depart- ment promptly moved in. The old kitchen on Main 1 was remodelec into a doctor's on-call room. An un finished room off Main 1 solariuir is now the Chief of Staff's office. "The on-call room for obstetrics was expanded and a badly needed storage space was created by re- novating the non-functioning Main 2 kitchen. The Maintenance Depart- ment has become ingenious in find- ing ways to help solve the space problems. Installing x-ray equip- ment in the cast room has made this a dual function area and significant- ly helped our patients in the rad- iology department. "Adding services, acquiring new equipment, instituting r ew methods and procedures continues as we con- stantly search for ways to improve our patient care. Witness' the Coron- ary Care Unit, the respiratory mon- itor in the nursery, the Doptone for obstetrics, the respirators for in- halation therapy, the microscope for micro-surgery arid all the other in- struments for E.N.T."
