The project is a result of a) 1963 annual convention of the Association where it was. re- solved that a program be initi- ated "in which the beliefs and responsibilities of nursing will be identified and supported by the members of the RNAO and subsequently interpreted to the allied iica!th groups". The Ontario County Chapter held its first meeting of the series on Monday. This meeting took the form of a panel discus- sion on whether nurses were reaily necessary. The discussion included hospital administra- tion, a potential patient, a doc- tor 'and various positions in nursing. REVIVE AND SURVIVE The second meeting, a work- shop, was called 'Revive and} Survive". Of the 650 active members of the Ontario County Chapter, which covers the area panel discussion, These ques- What do they do? How do they do it? How are they prepared to do it? Do present patterns of nursing meet the needs of pa- tients and nurses? Once these questions had been answered, the key question of the program would be asked, Where must nursing go from here? Table discussions followed the panel discussion, and in the afternoon reports were prepared from these. |FLOOR DISCUSSIONS Floor discussions and a brief summary from the chairman closed the workshop at 5 p.m. Guests at the meeting were Miss Carol Adams, nursing con- of the Registered Nurses' Asso- ciation, and Miss Jenny Ives, nursing consultant with the On- tario Hospital Services Commis- sion.

Mr. Drew presented a cheque for \$10,000, representing the prov- ince's share of the cost of the project, to W. Ford Lindsay, president of the Oshawa Hous- ing Co., Ltd., which operates the building. | William C. Crawford, presi- jdent of Crawford Construction Company, presented the keys of the building. C. F. T. Rounth- waite, of Rounthwaite'and Asso- ciates, Toronto, architects of the building, also spoke briefly. R. H. Spencer, manager of the Scarborough office of Central Mortgage and Housing Corpora- tion, which handled the financ- ing, attended. Following the opening cere- mony a number of the apart- ments were thrown open for in- spection. Pensioners will move into their new quarters this Saturday. The initiative for Westmount Hall came from the Oshawa Housing Company Ltd., after it had acquired a lengthy waiting list of single persons over 65 Whitby Bridge Club Scores | The winners and high scores of the games played this week by the members of the Whitby Duplicate Bridge Club were: North and South -- Miss For- Syth and Mrs. Baxter, 75%; Mrs. Pirie and Mrs. Mc- Cutcheon, 69;.Mr. and Mrs. Mc- Cann, 67; Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Odlum, 64.

The total esti- mated cost of the project is $146,124. The apartments rent for $46.50 per month, and in the case of tenents with no income other than their old age pen- sion, supplementary aid of $20 per month may be granted. In the prepared speech, Mr. Cecile said it was the civic government of Oshawa who de- served the primary credit in recognizing the need for the housing centre and carrying it through, step by step, from the planning stages to the present happy conclusion. EXTENSIVE STUDY public welfare has been doing a considerable amount of study of aging, both as a health and a social process. We have a geri- atrics clinic where a group of expert doctors carry out basic research, and we have under way, among other things, a 20- year survey of all aspects and influences involved in advanc- ing from middle age into old age. A 'cross section of the male population, 2,000 men who had just reached. their 45th birthday, consented to be the subjects of this study which has now been going on for five years. "With these sources of infor- mation we are in a position to realize that people past their middle years cannot be classi- fied as one single group called 'the aged.' I am sure I do not know when a person begins to be elderly in his sixties, seventies or eighties. I suspect it is an individual matter. But there is a span of a good 20 or 30 years in this third part of the average lifetime. The cir- cumstances of people passing through this long period are bound to be quite different at various stages of the journey. The common experience is that there is a depletion of financial resources and some inevitable deterioration in health. But the degree of need and the type of help required varies enormous- ly from age group to age group, and from person to per- son." He said: 'My department of|* ground is W. Ford Lindsay, president of Oshawa Housing Company Limited, which will operate the building. --Oshawa Times Photo Welfare Official Opens Pensioner Apartments in Ontario over 70 years old. All knew about the Medical Wel- fare Plan but only 16 per cent have applied for assistance and been accepted. He said that 84 per cent had assets and income above the minimum requirement. Resi- dents who seek accommodation in housing projects like West- mount Hall do so because of the low rent and because the apartments are specially de- signed for old people. ADVANTAGES RECOGNIZED The speech concluded: The government of Ontario recognized the many advan- tages of this type of accommo- dation 10 years ago when the Elderly Persons Housing Aid Act came into operation. This legislation offers an outright grant of $500 for each dwelling unit of a low rental housing project. For instance, the 20 apartments of Westmount Hall qualify for an Ontario grant of 10,000. : "It is most encouraging to see adequate housing being con- structed for this fills in a part of the wide circle of services which now secures the welfare of our population, young and old. The authorities of the City of Oshawa may surely be proud of their record in this regard and they deserve this opportu- nity, to' express their pride in these opening ceremonies. The persons who will enjoy the benefits of this fine new hous- ing would also want to say "thank you" on this oécasion. The representatives of other governments add their congrat- ulations." HISTORY MADE Mayor Lyman A. Gifford said that history was being made in the community with the open- ing of the Hall. He said that it 'was impossible to keep ahead of welfare in a growing commu- nity like Oshawa. Mr. Drew was thanked by Ald. A. Hayward Murdoch and introduced by Ald. Albert V. Walker, MPP. The proceed- ings opened with prayer by Right Rev. Monsignor Peul Dwyer. The dedicatory prayer was offered by Rev. Alfred Wool cock, president of the Oshawa Ministerial Association. The Benediction was pronounced by Rabbi Michael Kutziner. Oshawa Housing Company Limited consists of W. Ford Lindsay, president; Owen D. Friend, Edward G. McNeely, Ald. Cephas B. Gay, Ald.
