economist sim stouffville tribune saturday aug 21 1999 5 dr jim maclean grant might cover stays of up to 48 hours bs from page 1 markham stouffville will receive an extra 625000 a year from the province to address the new policy almost twice that of other york hospitals because ifs been providing the shortest stay for so long but maclean said that money wont coyer the cost of extending stays to 60 hours f dont know the exact number but its riot enough it covers a fairly good proportion of the cost but the reality is we cant get to 60 hours yet but we can get to 48 maclean said he feels the hospital had a good pro- gram with the 24- hour stay follow- up support was provided to motl ers who went home after a 24hour stay but recent stud ies have been criuv cal of sending new borns home too early a report con cluded that the ear lier a baby is dis charged from hos pital the rnorelike- ly the child will need to be readmitted for complications such as jaundice or not eating properly space will also be a problem at york county in newmarket where recent renovations moved the hospital toward the markham stouffville system allow ingmothers to labour deliverand recov er in the same roomi our biggest problem will be if every body decides to stay for 60 hours well behardpressed for space said stella wadsworthv manager of the maternalchild care unit at york county arid we cant control how many deliver ies happen in a day it can be as few as search on for missing woman those people wanting to lendaharid in this weekends search for missing 20- yearold tammy lamondingagnbn are asked to meet at the stouffville recreation centre at 9 am today and tomorrow volunteer searchers are also asked to contact lamondingagnbris mother first at 905 884256 a story printed in thursdays paper contained the wrong phone number jacqueline gagnon said shell contin ue the search for as long as it takes but is worried about time running out as fall approaches shes hoping to organize an eight- person group which can search the stoutfviue area weekdays as well volunteers are reminded to wear long pants and shirtsleeves hats and to bring a walking stick and water lamondirigagnon vanished friday may 28 after being seen in a newmarket bar with pol claassen 27 the pair was also seen in stouffville later that night where a relative of claassen lives claassen hung himself june 7 v a trust fund has been set up to help gaghori offset expenses including the cost 6f posters and longdistance calls those unable to search may want to make a cash donation at any branch of the national bank of canada quote branch number 08781 and account number 0022529 six and as many as 19 york county will also need more money to extend stays to 60 hours but wadsworth agreed the extra 12 hours will give new mothers time- to adjust to the baby and become more comfortable with things such as breast feeding planned renovations at york central hospitals maternity department will go a long way toward allowing 60hour stays but that could be two years away and funding provided for the longer stays still wont meet the need because the hospital is growing so fast there will be times when were tight because of 1he nature of obstetrics if moms came in equal numbers each day wed be ok but it comes in waves said ursula manuel director of the maternalchild program but i think its great news because the ladies who want to stay can stay and those who want to go home can all three hospitals will have to hire more nurses to meet the new policy but hiring is difficult because many hospi tals are trying to hire back nurses laid off during the cutbacks of the early 90s since the 60hour stay promise was first made by harris expectant mothers have been calling hospitals in advance of their delivery to book the longer stay we have a very informed public maclean said but they may be disap pointed when we cant offer it everybody will have to be a bit flexible maclean pointed out not every mother will want to stay the full 60 hours many leave very soon after the delivery certainly there are different needs for different patients some people need more time even here not everybody goes home at 24 hours he said we feel our model is a good model arid we hope we can accommodate those who want a longer stay your wine making establishment 10 off only with ec6mlstsun 2942200 for more
