Speaking at Tuesday night's board meeting, Mr. Ross said, "some union people are annoy- ed because they received a fast shuffle at the main hospital desk recently. They were so concerned about it that they had the president of their union go to the hospital but he en- countered no trouble." "Why should we worry about them?" protested board fhem- ber Harold Washington. UNION IN ACTION "Have you ever seen a labor union's army in action when they are disturbed about some- thing?" said Mr. Ross, "I'm not saying they're right, but they sure will howl if you re- strict visiting to any strenuous degree." Said Thomas L. Wilson, chair- man of the board, "if patients only come into the hospital to entertain visitors, then they should stay home." "They would also be the first to how! if the patient didn't get the proper treatment," said Mr. Washingon, people around him smoking and whooping it up, then he should- n't be here." COMPLAINT CAUSES Mr. Wilson explained that some people who come into the hospital prefer not to have visi- tors and, when some of the professional visitors (unions, lodges, ministers) find their names are not included on the list they are given, they com- plain." Commented Dr. H. Roy Row- sell, "the decision of what's best for the patient is still a medical one and that includes visitors." Mrs. H. B. James -rfe- called an instance where 11 per- sons visited a heart attack vic- tim at one time and they were, "whooping it up and the noise was terrific." She said, 'the next night the nurse had to police the room herself." ; "That's the answer," said a couple of voices in unison. PAMPHLET APPROVED | A pamphlet outlining visiting |restrictions was approved by |the board. ai It urgently requests visitors |to limit their visits to a maxi- mum 20 minutes, They are also }warned not to visit more than "What about the doctors?" asked Mr. Ross, 'they go from room to room carrying germs without steralizing themselves." "So do ministers," chimed in another member of the board. Other restrictions are: child- ren under 14 are not allowed to visit patients . . . patients are only allowed two visitors at one time . . . additional visitors must wait turn or they will be asked to leave the room... visitor's are requested to refrain from smoking, except in the waiting rooms . . . all electrical appliances brought for the pa- tient's personal use must be approved by the hospital elec- tricians . . . radios and tele- visions are only allowed when equipped with under - pillow speakers.
