*ts =
/, tions to Continue Holding
I of Travelling Clinics

~ Effective cooperation, particularly
tn the conducting of clinics, between
The Minnesota Public Health associ-
alton and the Northern Division OF
the Red Cross, was assured at a meet
ing of representatives OF both or
CARNATIONS which was held recently
at the office of the Northern Division
at Minneapolis, attended by DR.. T. c.
Clark, Miss Linda james. DIR. H. w.
Cook, and DR.. C.. l.. ScOfield OF Ben
son, on behalf Of the Health associ-
alton and by Dr. Mabel S. Ulrich. G.
c., Held and Miss Mary Muckley
for the Red Cross. .
1T was determined at this meeting
that local public health associations
shall continue to put on travelling
clinics. such as tubercular, eye and
ear. nutrition and dental clinics, I'M
der the supervision of the Minnesota
Public Health association, and that
in all cases where county nurse
is not available the Red Cross shall
pledge the assistance Of one Of Its
nurses, either from the field or from
headquarters. : =
Preparations for the clinic, it was
agreed, will be made by the Red
Cross, and the follow-up work after
wards will be done by the same or
ganization. In order that sufficient
time shall be assured to make the
work successful in each case, 1t was
determined that the local health, $3.50
citation shall be required to notify
the Minnesota Public, Health asso-
citation a month before the date set
of It's intention to hold the clinic,
and that the Information shall be
passed on Immediately to the Red
Cross by the Minnesota Public Health
association. This will make it pos
sible for both organizations to make
adequate preparations, to avoid the
possibility of delay or the miscarry-
ing Of plans, and to insure the sue
cess of the work so far as their ef-
forts can do so. Clinics held under
this agreement are to be advertised
as conducted under the auspices OF
the Minnesota Public Health associa-
ton, with the assistance of a nurse
supplied by the Red Cross.
Other matters concerning the CO.
ordination OF the efforts Of the two
associations were discussed, and q
general understanding Of the partic-
ular lines Of work carried on by each
was reached. . &t'.s
