Hospital Report >
Shows Progress in
Past Three Months
Valley Hospital Association
members this week received cop
ies of the quarterly report of the
Valley Presbyterian Hospital.
The report touches on nearly
every phase of operation at the
hospital, from personnel in the
kitchen to the budget and a num
ber of important functions be
tween.
The report points out that the
local hospital now has one of the
largest and most well-rounded
consulting medical staffs of any
institution in the Territory. The
active medical staff includes Dr.
Arthur Colberg, president; Dr.
John Burnett, vice-president;
and Dr. C. C. Bailey. Among the
specialists available through
the local doctors and the hospital
are four general surgeons, three
internists (including cariolody),
two orthopedic surgeons, two
eye-ear-nose-throat specialists,
and one specialist each in the
fields of pediatrics, neurosurgery,
gynecology, obstretrics, urology,
radiology and pathology.
In order to attract nurses to
Pelmer, the report states, the
Board was forced to raise nurs
ing salaries. Effective September
1, the basic salary of general
duty nurses was made $380 a
month. $40 more than the old
rate. Nurses Aides’ salaries were
raised to $275 a month.
The 1957 membership drive is I
expected to get under way in an
other month or so.
Anyone having suggestions to
improve the system used last j
year is asked to please pass them !
