DR.. SOMERS' IDEA.
Sufferers Should Not Be
Jolted Up.
HIS PROPOSED AMBULANCES
He Seems to Think That Bruised,
Bleeding or Broken Humanity
Does Not Need Torturing.

The action of the Board of Health In
recommending to the Board of Supervisors
the establishment of an ambulance service
for the Receiving Hospital has awakened
considerable in interest.
The general impression is that an ambu-
lance for removing patients to their homes
absolute necessity. Up to this time all
patients have been removed by means of
express-wagoas when they could not af-
ford to pay for carriages.
Even carriages are not the proper kind
of vehicles in which to remove patients
who have suffered severe fractures. Often
the result of moving patients in this way
is very serious TO the patient. The joltng
OF the carriage or wagon often throws a
set limb out of position, and the result is
deformity. Then there Is the pain of lying
in cramped position.
Police Surgeon Somers, under whose
management at the Receiving Hospital
there have been more reforms and I'M
provemerts than during any other admin
istration of the institution, originated the
plan for providing an ambulance service
for the hospital. DR.. Somers is progress
sive man, and his ambition is TO bring the
Receiving Hospital TO such high degree
of efficiency that not even the wealthiest
patients would hesitate to receive treat
ment at the hospital in case OF emergency.
In speaking on Tho proposed ambulance
system yesterday, DR.. Somers said:
For soma time l have recognized the
necessity of an ambulance service con-
nected with the Receiving Hospital.

cellent service. and was an Improvement

The question of the physiological effect
of the duties of the telegraph and the teie-
phone operator. which has been beset with
many contradictory statements, has again
been discussed in an English medical jour
nal.
DR.. Monin has observed that telegraph

tains that in complaining of the Irregular

However little nervous man may be at

experiences irritation, giddiness, pxhaus-

I'm other cities of the size Of San Fran
cisco the latest improved ambulances are
in active use and have been for some time
rast. In serious cases no dependence
whatever is placed on the patrol system,
which Is considered to be an entirely
separate institution.
''ln cities where the ambulance service
is In operation the entire territory Is
divided into districts and zach district has
its own ambulance. Ambulance calls are
sent in to the various stations from the
same boxes used for the patrol wagon. No
separate alarm service is needed. Tho
police. after receiving notice, ring in for
an am mbulance.
"The results of the new system have been
excellent and the system has afforded tho
greatest satisfaction wherever 1t has been

that patients are saved much unnecessary
