If the patient is too ill to write the Red Cross visitor will communicate with his family and adviseo them of his progress. If the patient‘s stay in hosâ€" pital is to be a lengthy one, the Red Cross will supply him with occupational thereapy materials and instructions to improve his} morale and to help pass the time.
