NEwW BRITA™ DAILY HER ALZ MONDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 192C. hat’s the Matter With Your Hospital 2 Public spirited citizens opened your hos- pital as an emergency hospital on October 4, 1898, on the present site to care for the typhoid fever cases of our returning Spanish war soldiers. Later it was decided that a permanent hospital be established and this was opened May 1, 1899, in the present frame building on Grand street, with accommodations for 12 to 14 patients. In 1904 a brick building was put up or 54 patients. In 1915 two small frame build- ings on Griswold street were added to care for 21 more patients, or a total of 75. Since then no further additions have been built. ‘ During the last two years your hospital 'has grown so that it has become 60 to 70 Per Cent. overcrowded, and with normal accommo- “Help Your _Hospital . $600,000 dations for 75 patients, as high as 110 have been cared for daily, the average being 95 daily. Last year the hospital took care of 2,380 cases—1,080 cases above normal—1,080 cases more than could be accommodated. What was the result? Wards were over- crowded, rooms were congested, spaces (cor- ridors, for instance) were used that were not intended for hospitalizing—and even then one or more patients had to be refused admission daily. Was it any wonder that you heard your hospital conditions criticized? Is it any wonder that conditions were as they were—with such crowding? But what could be done? There are today enough accident and emergency cases occurring in a city of the size of New Britain, not only to fill your hospital, but to overcrowd it, and crowd out persons requiring general treatment. You can’t turn away an accident case— you can’t turn away an injured person who has been rushed to your hospital. . . . What is the remedy? What shall be done with your hospital, which can only care for 75 persons and has been caring for 110 persons, of necessity? .. i e i aied The remedy is to build—to provide for the present day need of the hospital—to have 165 to 170 beds to properly care for the number of patients who apply to your hospital for ad- mission. oo e S e 2 2 e 0 The remedy is in YOUR hands. $600,000 is needed! Will you help so that you and yours may be helped if need be? You’ll Need It!” »November 29 December 6 PLAINVILLE ”EWS held at East Hartford under the' Food sale Tuesday, Center Church.
