NEW INPATIENT CHILD PSYCHIATRIC SERVICE

A new inpatient child psychiatric service ^t the Jewish Hospital is to be developed .and its operation underwritten by grants "Received from Mrs. Ellen S. Berkman and the Steinberg Charitable Trust, which was created by the late Mark C. Steinberg. The joint contribution of $600,000 is to defray jin annual operating deficit of up to $75,000

year for a period of eight years. Trustees for the estate are Richard K. Weil and Elliot Stein.

Mrs. Berkman, daughter of Mrs. Mark C.

Steinberg, originated the program because of a concern for the lack of child psychiatric facilities in this area, and contributed an additional $75,000 for construction and equipment of the unit, which will be located in the main hospital building.

There is a great unmet need for expanding psychiatric services for children, as part of a long-range mental health program in the community. At the present time, St. Louis has no hospital with bed facilities designed especially for disturbed children needing psychiatric care. These children, if hos- pitalized, are placed in the adult division of a hospital, are sent to one of the few avail- able facilities in the country—at community

or personal expense—or are neglected alto- gether. The child psychiatry unit—a pioneer program in this area—is seen as one link in a chain of community resources for the disturbed child, and will require functional working relationships on the professional level with child guidance centers, children's homes, and other agencies working with children.

Seriously disturbed children with severe neuroses, extreme character and behavior disorders, extreme malnutrition caused by emotional factors, etc.—but who are con- sidered to be amenable to treatment—will be accepted for inpatient service. Out- patient service is also planned to provide follow-up treatment for children who are discharged and for those referred on an outpatient basis. Although training of personnel and research are, quite naturally, integral parts of a program such as this, the emphasis will be on treatment.

The program is to be under the direction of a full-time child psychiatrist of outstand- ing reputation, and will be staffed by a variety of specialized personnel, such as psychiatric residents or fellows, occupational and group therapists, psychiatric nurses, psychiatric social workers, counsel- ors and teachers.

The child psychiatric service is to be large enough for a minimum of 15 children and a maximum of 20, and will be located on a floor separate from general patients. In addition to sleeping rooms, the unit will contain occupational therapy and play therapy areas, classrooms, an outdoor play area, and offices for the psychiatrist and other professional and clerical staff.

It is expected that the program will get underway early in 1957, when alterations have been completed and a qualified staff has been engaged.

The estimated cost of the program will average $10,000 a year per bed, which would mean that a 15-bed program would require a budget of $150,000 per year. It is antici- pated that the operating budget of $75,000 a year over that underwritten by the contribution will be met by income derived from patients on a full- or part-pay basis, and possibly from voluntary agencies or state funds.

Recent Grants For Equipment and Research

$10,000 has been received from Morton J. May, life member of the Board of Di- rectors of the Hospital, for research in the detection of cancer being conducted by Dr. Herman T. Blumenthal, Pathologist and Director of the Division of Laboratories.

$6,000 has been received from the Chil- dren's Research Foundation, a local philan- thropic organization that sponsors research activities in the diseases of children, for research in prenatal development being conducted by Dr. Blumenthal. It is hoped that this work will contribute to the knowl- edge of stillborn infants, the top cause of death of babies.

$5,000 has been received from the Na- tional Drug Company of Philadelphia for research in chymotrypsin, an enzyme derived from the pancreas and which, when injected into test animals, has been shown to accelerate the rate of disappearance of clots in blood vessels. Research, under the direction of Dr. Sol Sherry, Director of the Division of Medical Services and the Medi- cal Research Laboratory, will explore the usefulness of chymotrypsin in the treatment of patients with blood clot disorders.

$3,000 has been received from Mrs. Clara K. London to be applied to the fund set up in 1939 in memory of her late husband, Louis M. Monheimer. Scientific research on glandular function in problems of aging is being supported by this Fund under the direction of Dr. Blumenthal.

$930 has been received from the St. Louis Heart Association for research in connec- tion with the City Hospital Artery Bank, a community project which collects and prepares artery grafts used in newly de-

veloped surgical operations designed to replace portions of diseased vessels with grafts of normal vessels. The project, under the direction of Dr. Morton D. Pareira, Director of the Division of Surgical Services and the Surgical Research Laboratory, is concerned with changes in the graft arteries produced by the various methods of preservation. It is hoped that the investigations will indicate the most desirable method of preservation.

United Fund Goal Reached The United Fund campaign, recently

held at the Hospital, reached its goal of $3,000. This represents an increase of almost $500 over that given to the Com- munity Chest in 1954. The drive was conducted by Chairman George Home, Chief Pharmacist, and Vice Chairman Imo- gene Laswell, Personnel Director.

This year, the Hospital also conducted the campaign for members of the medical staff, which netted almost $11,000. This drive was ably handled by Shirley Stoving, Secretary to the Executive Director.

ployees on December 21 was a huge success. Theme of the occasion was Winter Won- derland— and it was just that — with the gymnasium in the School of Nursing Build- ing beautifully decorated by the student nurses and many others under the creative and ingenious guidance of Wilhelmina

OOOOH! What Time Is It? If you've ever been a patient in our

Hospital—or if you plan to be—then read and rejoice! No more early breakfasts . . , early lunches . . . early suppers! For the patient who looked forward to catching up on rest and relaxation during his stay in the Hospital, this has been a traditional sore spot . . . and we don't mean this as a pun! The development of a schedule much closer to that which a patient might expect at home has been accomplished by the Nursing and Dietary Departments. Break- fast' is at 8:00 instead of 7:00, lunch at 12:00 instead of 11:30, and supper at 5:30 instead of 4:30. The new schedule, which went into effect in November, has proved to be a popular one.

Gertrude Charities Society CONGRATULATIONS! to the Gertrude

Charities Society, which is celebrating its Fiftieth Anniversary this month. For a number of years, the Society has given financial support to the Hospital for cancer research, furniture and equipment for the Outpatient Clinic, and has sponsored a student nurse scholarship. Every Tuesday, a group of members of the Society report to the Hospital to do much-needed sewing of about 70 different items, some of which are covers for hot water bottles, hemming of towels, abdominal binders . . . and they have turned out a tremendous amount of work. The Society has a membership of over 400 and is affiliated with the Board of Religious Organizations.

Group Nursing Group Nursing, a new share-the-nurse

service, was put into operation at the Jewish Hospital last month. This new service fills a need for patients who require more than the regular care provided by the staff nurses in the Hospital, but who do not require constant attention of a private-duty nurse.

At the present time, two Group Nursing units are in operation at the north end of the seventh floor, including both private (single-bed) and semiprivate (two-bed) rooms. Each unit cares for three patients, and is staffed by three nurses—one for each eight hour shift in the day. Thus, each nurse has only three patients assigned to her. In addition, the Group Nursing service has the assistance of an aide to perform the lighter nursing tasks. All the nurses assigned to Group Nursing are regular members of the Nursing Department.

Recommendation for admission to Group Nursing must be made by the patient's physician. All patients are eligible for this individualized nursing service with the ex- ception of pediatric, maternity, psychiatric or contagious patients.

The saving in dollars to the patient is considerable. For 24 hours of care, the cost is only $18.00, as compared to $42.00 for individual private-duty nursing care for the same period. This service is not covered by Blue Cross.

Group Nursing has been adopted by several hospitals throughout the country over the past 10 years, and has been found to be

MEDICAL STAFF—Continued the Southern Medical Association at its annual meeting in Houston, Texas, on No- vember 14. Also, Dr. Goldman gave a talk on "Pulmonary Hemoptysis" at the semi- annual meeting of the American Medical Association in Boston, Massachusetts, No- vember 28.

Dr. Jerome S. Grosby, Director of the Department of Dentistry, and Dr. Joseph H. Lesser, Associate in the Division of Surgical Services, spoke on "Early Diagnosis of Cancerous and Precancerous Lesions of the Oral Cavity" at the Midcontinent Dental Congress held here on November 30.

Dr. Paul S. Lowenstein, Senior Surgeon, Division of Surgical Services, was nominated as Vice President of the American College of Angiology, an organization devoted to the study of diseases of the heart and blood vessels. Dr. Lowenstein and Dr. Morton D. Pareira, Director of the Division of Sur- gical Services, are charter members of ACA, which was formed about a year ago. Dr. Melvin Goldman of the Division of Medical Services, has also been elected to membership. The first scientific session of ACA was held in Atlantic City last June, and a paper on "Intestinal Obstruction Secondary to Peri-arteritis Nodosa" was presented by Dr. Lowenstein and Dr. Max Heeb, second- year Resident in Surgery.

Dr. Milton M. Voda has resumed his service at ' .sistant on the teaching staff of

fthe Department of Dentistry after an absence of two years of military duty at Port Sam Houston, San Antonio, Texas, and the U. S. Army Hospital at Camp ChafFee, Fort Smith, Arkansas.

The Kiddies Are Happy, Now! Attractive "small fry" silverware, dishes

and trays are now in use in the Pediatrics Department . . . made possible by funds from the Women's Auxiliary of the Hos- pital. Along with this, the Dietary Depart- ment has gone overboard to serve food "just like Mom would fix at home," to make it more appealing and attractive to the children. In addition to the highly nutritious foods served, some of the changes, which have gone over with a bang, are boxed cereals instead of cooked, hamburgers instead of some of the usual meat dishes, peanut butter and jelly and sandwiches made of salads or other entrees planned for the general menu of the day. When deviled eggs are served, a little sail, fashioned out of a toothpick and a piece of cloth, is hoisted atop the egg to turn it into a sailboat. A variety of cookies and animal crackers, jello, ice cream and chocolate milk are always on hand. Toothpick favors of animal characters, which the tots may keep, adorn many of the foods served. "Oh, Mother, I'm so happy with my tray to- night!" is a familiar cry.
