In District TB Survey

Districts tuberculosis sanitari-
um. should be sold. according
to tn. survey Of hospital facili-
ties released toda-.
The dramatic decline in the
need for tuberculosis beds will
soon permit all TB patients to
be treated at the District Cen
eral Hospital. the Steinle re-
port said.
As a step In this direction
it recommended that the niedi-
cal STATS Of the two hospitals
be integrated Immediately.
Needs Pointed Out
The group pointed out, how
ever, that the District con-
sistently has a higher percent
age Of new cases that are well
advanced than other cities. It
pointed out a number Of TB
program needs including:
la tuberculin test for school
children here.
2. Routine screening pro-
grams in all hospitals here.
3. A Better followIup system
for discharged patients.
The transfer Of patients
from the District General Hos
pital TO Glenn Dale have been
"haphazard and apparently. In
most instances, done by the
patients themselves" the re-
port said.
It cited q general lack OF
continuity of care for tuber-
culosis victims and poor organ
ization. District General Hos
pital maintains its own out
patient clinic for TB patients.

A far-fiung psychiatric pro-
gram designed 70 MI . gaping
hole in the Districts public
health program was proposed
today.
The Steinle report. presented
to the Commissioners last week
and released today. noted q
higher ratio Of hospitaIized
mental patients in the District
than in any other major city.
1t pointed out little Is be-
ing done about it.
The report recommended the
Health Department create a
bureau Of mental health 70
focus attention on this field
q nd coordinate activities.
Health Director Or. Daniel Leo
Finucane already is consider
ing q similar recommendation
to be presented to the Com
missioners.
The report called for the
opening OF the District General
Hospital psychiatric section to
private patients. It noted that
there are only 70 psychiatric
beds available to private psy-
chiatrists in the entire met
ropolitan area.
School Program Urged
Other recommendations In
clude:
1. A school psychiatric pro-
gram.
2. Child and adult mental
health clinics paid for by the
District at Georgetown Uni
versity. George Washington
University. Sibley. Children's,
District General and Freed
mems Hospitals and the Wash
ington Hospital Center.
3. A post-hospitai follow-up
program for patients dis
charged from st. Elizabeths and
District General. At present
psychiatrists say. many pa
tients are being returned be-
cause Of a lack Of such out
patient facilities.
4. An education program sup
ported by the proposed Bureau
of Mental Health.
s. A geriatric unit in the

tionts who will still be eligible
for old-age assistance. saving
the District the costs of st,
Elizabeths. Many elderly per-
sons are sent to st. Elizabeths
because the District has no
geriatric facilities.
81 Million Saving Seen

programs. the surveyors said
the costs should not be above
the present mental health bill
of $i3.160.000 per year. most

trict residents in st. Elizabeths
They said from 20 to SO pei
cent Of the patients now sent
to st. Elizabeths could be
treated otherwise II the pro-
gram is put into effect. This
could eventually save the Dis
trict UP b "a million annually
The cost Of the preventative
program was estimated al
