(See story for details.) Hospital begins first recycling campaign Port Perry's Community Me- morial Hospital has begun a re- cycling program which will see significant amounts of paper recycled instead of going to landfill sites. The hospital began Phase 1 of its recycling operation this week when 40 blue bins were placed around the hospital. The first phase of the two- phase plan consists of only fine paper and corrugated card- board being recycled. Phase 2, which is scheduled for imple- mentation in the early fall, will see cans and bottles, as well as newspapers being separated. Although no estimates could be made at this early stage as to how much waste will be recy- cled in the first phase, Carl White, chairman of the hospi- tal's ad hoc waste management committee, anticipates that it will be substantial. He says a fair amount of paper will be saved. According to Ruth Wilkins, staff education co-ordinator, the program was introduced on the request of the employees. Many had identified the need for such a program, and there- fore the administration felt that the time for such a scheme had come. A waste management com- mittee was formed consisting of department heads, who in turn formed the ad hoc waste management committee, made up of department staff. The ad hoc committee, con- sisting of eight to 10 hospital members, met to evaluate the situation and formulate a waste recycling program. Its recommendations were then forwarded to the waste man- agement committee for approv- al. Prior to its implementation at the hospital this week, the staff had a week of in-house training on Phase 1 of the plan. Mr. White says the staff has taken to the idea of recycling fairly quickly, and have ex- pressed genuine enthusiasm about the program. He antici- pates it will take two months for the program to be fully effi- cient. "It's a team approach," says Mrs. Wilkins. "Everybody must contribute to get the program on the road." Mr. White says a log book will be kept to document the amount of paper that is being recycled under the program, and says a better idea of the ef- fectiveness of it will be indicat- ed in a few months. : Kelly Lee and Bill Graham.

Recognition given to Special Services staff at hospital The hospital celebrated Special Services Staff Day on Friday . Who are Special Services Staff? These are the men and women who provide some of the support services within the hospital - the housekeepers, laundry aides, stores clerks, receptionists and dietary staff. These individuals work diligent- ly behind the scenes, providing the background environment which permits the other hospital staff to deliver quality patient care. Without them, the other pro- fessional staff would have a tough "time performing their functions! Special recognition was given to Carl White, housekeeping lead hand and Sandy Fraser, dietary aide. Carl has just completed the Ontario Hospital Association's ex- ecutive housekeeping director course, and Sandy has graduated from Durham College, with a cer- tificate in cooking. Phase 1 consists of the recycling of fine paper and corrugated cardboard, while Phase 2, to be implemented later this year, will see bottles and cans, as well as newspapers hitting the blue boxes.
