The benefits' derived from well &i- rected medical “inspection ‘work' are ‘many.: - Physical defects, such'as ade- noids, -enlarged - tonsils,’ defective vi- sion, defective Nearing, etc., are - dis- covered ‘and remedied. Al the-above ailments are-considered as serious menaces to the child’'s welfare and pro- gress in school ‘work. Medical inspection calls attention to many other condftions which: surround the child; to .the ventilation, lighting, and heating: of the Pullding; to: the need of properly adjusted desks and to home condjtions.. Uncleanliness is one of-the greatest evils. Today, there is no excuse for the many cases . of ‘pediculosic - and - impetigo -reported.. Ig- norance of the laws of health in the home is-responsible for- most of these cases. In this line. of work the nurse | is especially valuable by teaching the’ children and the parents through the children how to care for their, bodies. Spencer says, “The most important subject in education is a thorough Knowledge of the laws of health and| How to prevent disease. Epidemics Prevented. In making a study .of the work in established systems, I° find that a, number iof ;spidemics have been s pre- vented in-aisehool Whers some-children | had become ill with a contagious”als-| ease; ' The nurse examined alt chil- dren as they entered the ‘schodl rooms and any child showing: slgns of the disease was ‘excluded befors he had arrived- at the icontagious stage. * In this way, often times, the closing of Echools with. its. educational loss to the. chifaren” wof thie financial loss to the town cowld be avoided.. Aid Towards Healthier Ch"dr‘n. However, the greatest advantage of medical inspection is not so much in prevenfing contagicn as it is. discov- ering and preventing physical defects, 5o that such children may have an opportunity to malki progress in the work which thel mormal anit would"'perfoft - Retarded Droj should beé irivestirated: Often the 'aid of a skilled physiclan is needed o dis- cover the reasorm for en abnormal na- ture... Whatever is done to - “mike healthier, happler children is :for the highest geod of- the community and is-the. real foundation of education. JAn effort is being made by our state s | school- systems. It includes: How Organized and Carried Out. A l’h)l‘lfll «xlmlmllcm is made at card record of each lndlvhl\nl ehfld ll kept in -each school building. If a child is found to of medical attention the parents are notified. The parent is ta consult the family o :l:,(hh‘. as he chooses. e reports. S reports are lost by the children and many others are unheeded by the par- tar ! Bk Coatitioaestall Sor s and make. indespersable -some system of “follow up” method. It is the work of the nurse to visit the homes, comsult with the pafents, and in'thls way make an effort to bet- ter conditions.

After making an investigagion of the organization of the work in oth- er cities of the state, I find’ that near- ¥ all have appointed from one to_three physicians and a school nurse. Stam- ford - has two physiclans and a nurse, expense $1.620.63; Meriden has three physicians and a nurse $250 is paid to each physician and $700 to the nurse: New Britain has three physicians and & nurse, $350 is pald to each physician and $800 to the purse: New Haven has two physicians and six nurses, $1.- 300 is paid to each physician and $600 o éach of the murses: Middletown em- ploys-one physi¢ian and 'a nurse, total expensge about §1.004:" New London em. ploys five physiclans who make one visit a week to each of the buildings charge; they are paid three dollars 8 visit making s total expense to the Bity: $600.° ‘They. also employ a nurse n a salary of $800. “practically all of the places in- vestigated the school physician makes one weekly. visit to the buildings as- signed to him and examines such cases as are reported by the nurse or rincipals. = The nyrse devotes all of her time to the work. Typical Defects Found. Below 1s a list of the defects report- ed by one school physician. This list is typical. of what is found in other Enlarg- e tonsils, defective nasal breathing, defective teeth, cervical glands, anae mia, ph y sub-normal, defective vision, disease of eye, defective hear- in, disease of eéar, orthopedic, de- fects, heart disease, lung troubles, ner. vous disease, mentally defective, de- feotive speech.
