Who lovea a hospital? Th hospital people hav been about as realistic as on can get tn selecting the theme tor thin 1971 National Hospital Week. The question portrays the hug public misunderstanding which our hospttals hav to keep working to hard to overcome. Hospttals are thought of as places whor most people go when they ar sick. More hopitale are accurately, places where most people are being restored to healthy lives or told what to do to stay healthy. Hospitals are often thought of as medical hotels for the few who car afford the tariff. Actually, hospitals today ar deeply Involved n delivering car to th underprivileged, and are Increasingly visible In community health programs. Hospitals are accused of contributing to Inflation. Instead, hospitals are victims of Inal flation. Recent raises In wages were long overdue, yet tt takes 279 hospital workers to provide proper care to 100 patients, compared with 156 workers a quarter century ago. Boosts In the prices cf hospital supplies are justified but tt takes even more equipment and supplies to provide the advanced clinical and diagnostic services now expected of the hospital. Hospttals are front and foremost In the quest to control operating costs, reduce the length of stay and provide comprehensive health care prepayment. Since tt Is so important that a good hospital be available to any of us at a moments notice, tt behooves all of us to keep Informed of hospital needs and problems. Getting Informed ts a logical way for you to obrervo National Hospital Week and we are sure your favorite hospital will be glad to holp - as usual. ' |
