A Community Need

THIS COMMUNITY'S GREATEST PRESENT NEED is more hospital facilities. For

more than a year the Hospital's Board of Trustees and Medical Staff have been work-

ing toward a program intended to correct this condition.

The recently announced campaign to provide $600,000 with which to construct a new

wing and rehabilitate portions of the present building is the result of their study and effort.

Today, beds are in space never intended for patient use. Private rooms have been

converted into two-bed and three-bed wards. With 60 beds crowded into our 30 bed

Hospital, further expansion to accommodate the increasing number who seek admittance

is impossible.

Patients are requested to remain no longer than absolutely necessary. Frequently they

are urged by the Hospital Staff and their Physicians to leave before they wish to return to

their homes, that others in greater need of service may be admitted. The Hospital has no

accommodations for long term convalescents, or the infirm who wish to remain for extended

periods of time.

This is a COMMUNITY PROBLEM in which everyone has a common responsibility.

It affects the individual, the members of the family and his neighbors. Firms and corpora-

tions likewise, must assume an equitable share of the objective, justifying their participa-

tion by the axiom that good health and high production go hand in hand.

The Medical Staff

THE MEDICAL PROFESSION has long recognized the shortage of local hospital

facilities as a menace to public health. In a recent staff meeting they approved the

proposed plans and procedures for expanding the Hospital to more nearly meet the health

needs of the community.

Successful practice of the healing arts today, more than ever before, imposes upon

the physician demands far beyond his individual capacity to meet. Higher incomes and

health insurance have made hospital care possible for added thousands and, they expect

and should have this service.

Like the rest of their fellow citizens, physicians and dentists are human. They are

husbands, parents, neighbors and friends. They enjoy the blessings and share the respon-

sibilities that come from living in a good community. They, too, are prey to ills which

must be fought with every weapon in the aresenal of scientific knowledge.

The physician has a powerful ally in the modern hospital. By making it possible for

the gravely ill and the victims of serious accidents, who are his patients, to be in one

place close to diagnostic, mechanical and therapeutic facilities and under his continuous

supervision, the hospital contributes greatly to the restoration of the afflicted to the

blessings of health.

If, as we know, the profession of healing has made greater progress

in the first half of the Twentieth Century than in all the years of prior

history it is because of discoveries in science and technology. The physician

is always first to give credit to the modern hospital for its contribution to

the progress. Likewise, he is always among the first to support the cause

of building adequately to meet the health needs of the community.

Is Expansion Necessary

OUR HOSPITAL SITUATION is so desperate it is sometimes necessary to request

ambulance owners to take accident victims elsewhere because there are no emergency

beds available.

Chronic sufferers are frequently asked to delay entrance to give priority to acute cases

of illness that must have immediate attention.

Imagine the terror that grips the hearts of the sick and injured when told-- "Sorry,

there are no beds available!"

Much of our equipment and facilities are rapidly approaching obsolescence. We need

a new and larger Surgery. Our Maternity Department is unsatisfactory. X-Ray and

Laboratory rooms are too small for effective work. The Dietary Department, now in the

basement of the Nurses Residence, will be located in the new building where receiving and

the preparation and serving of food can be handled effectively. Supervision, likewise, will

have a central location which will contribute much to efficiency throughout the institution.

The intensive service area of the Hospital embraces a poulation of approximately

25,000. On the basis of recognized hospital bed requirements- 4.5 beds per 1,000 popu-

lation--our need is 112 beds.

The plans projected on the following pages,

leaving the 4th floor a shell for the present, pro-

vides 75 beds with a maximum capacity of 97

possible. If, through the generous response of

our citizens, the 4th floor can be finished now,

we will have a 106 bed hospital with a maxi-

mum capacity of 133 beds.

Community Support

OUR CITIZENS are of one mind regarding the need for expanding the physical

facilities of our hospital. There must also be unanimous financial support, individual

and corporate, if we are to achieve our objective.

The Jane M. Case Hospital has served our people for 50 years. It was built and

equipped by others. Now, it is our responsibility to build for the next 50 years to provide

adequately for ourselves and those who will follow us. This is truly a "Once in a Life

Time Opportunity."

One thing is certain, wishful thinking will never provide an adequate hospital for this

community. No one can without his fair share hoping a generous neighbor will give

enough to make unnecessary his full and equitable participation. $600,000 is a challenging

goal, but entirely possible of attainment when measured by the economy of Delaware

County.

A gift to the Jane M. Case Hospital Building Fund is a deductible item when computing

corporate and personal Income Tax returns. Those who are in a position to give stock in

payment of their gifts are urged to consult their attorney, or tax specialist to determine

the advantage they may realize in this plan of paying their contribution.

Gifts may be paid monthly, quar-

terly, semi-annually, or annually over

a period of 36 months. Special pay-

ment plans may be arranged to

meet the convenience of donors.

Names That Will Live

LONG after inscriptions on stone and bronze are worn thin--hospital memorials will

live in men's minds because they represent service to suffering mankind. Truly they

are a breath of immortality.

There is no better way to honor the memory of a loved one, perpetuate the name of

a firm, a fellow employee, a fraternal group, or to place one's name favorably before his

fellowman, than through a hospital memorial which will carry on the ideal of service

above self.

On the following pages many opportunities are offered for lasting memorials. In

addition to room memorials, equipment memorials are also available. You may make

your choice from the floor plans and lists in this booklet. When you have made your

selection, your memorial designation will be recorded pending the completion of the build-

ing when suitable plaques will be provided.

"I expect to pass through this world

but once, any good thing therefore

that I can do, or any kindness that

I can show to any fellow creature,

let me not defer or neglect it--for

I shall not pass this way again."

Why Do We Build

AN ENLARGED HOSPITAL with a new Surgery, a modern Maternity Department,

adequate Pediatric facilities and other equipment that will contribute to better health

care, is not a move to "keep up with the Joneses."

Like the cities that have built, and those that will do so in the near future, we are

attempting to meet demands created by population growth and the attitude of a public educated

to the advantages of hospital service.

Firms and individuals provide the capital needs of voluntary hospitals because of (a)

SENTIMENT - that humanitarian desire to care for mothers and their babies, restore cripped

children to health, provide comfort for the aged, protect employees and their families and serve

the health interests of the whole community. (b) REASON - the knowledge that hospitals

are a mighty factor in the advancement of preventive and curative medicine; their influence

on the economy of the community, and because they represent a heritage the present generation

recognizes it owes to the one that follows.

Good Reasons for Giving

A HOSPITAL is far more than stone, mortar, bricks, beds and bassinets. It is the

embodiment of hope, achievement, faith and courage. Nothing you have ever done--

nothing you will ever do--will equal in human value and personal satisfaction your investment

in lengthening the life and strengthening the living of your fellow man. Today's donors are

making an investment in--"Better Life, for Life."

To the employer--health and wealth go hand-in-hand. A healthy working force means

less absenteeism, more production, greater profit. Accepting your fair share of the objective

will guarantee adequate hospital facilities for you, your family, your employees and their

families.

To the employee--a quick recovery from accident or illness can certainly mean added

dollars in your pocket. Your pledge of Fair Share support is vital to the hospital needs of

our community, to you, and to your family.

To the citizens of this area--an adequate hospital is your guarantee of the protection you

and your family deserve. Give your Fair Share.
