Frechette, M.D., M.P.H., Chairman Submitted herewith is the annual report of the Public Health Council for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1964 Meetings Regular monthly meetings were held in accordance with General Laws, Chapter 17, Section 3. In compliance with General Laws, Chapter 30A, Section 11A, notices of all regular meetings of the Council and meetings of committees of the Council were filed with the Commissioner of Administration and Finance and with the Secretary of State The Committee on Environmental Sanitation, composed of Dr. Jakmauh, Chairman, Professor Fair, Mr. Sirianni and the Commissioner, met regularly during the year prior to the regular Council meetings to study matters of sanitary engineering significance and consumer products protection, and to prepare recommendations for presentation to the full meeting of the Council. The Committee on Hospital Problems, composed of Dr. Wilinsky, Dr. Jakmauh and Mr. Kovner, met on three occasions to visit facilities which had applied for relicensing. Following these meetings recommendations were prepared and presented to the full meeting of the Council. General Duties The regular duties imposed upon the Council by General Laws, Chapter 111, Section 3, and other statutes have been carried out. These include the approval fend licensing of hospitals, blood banks, convalescent and nursing homes, rest homes, public medical institutions, city and town infirmaries, dispensaries and dental clinics, and medical schools and laboratories de- siring to obtain impounded animals for scientific investigation, experiment or instruction. These approvals are based upon reports of inspections hy members of the Department who ascertain if the facilities comply with the Department's standards for licensure. Other duties include the certification of laboratories which have taken part in the annual evaluation and have demonstrated their ability to perform satisfactorily certain tests; approval of personnel in the Department and at State sanatoria and professional personnel at county and municipal sanatoria; approval of food regulations of local communities; advice to com- munities and official agencies relative to sanitary problems of water supply, sewage disposal and nuisances; approval of out-of-state shellfish dealers who have been approved by their respective state shellfish authorities. Contracts between the Medical Milk Commission of Boston and H. P. Hood and Sons, Inc., of Boston, and between the Medical Milk Commission and Vitamilk-Washoba, Inc., of Harvard, for the production of certified milk were approved. Agreements were approved and signed between the Commonwealth, . 5. through the Department of Public Health, and the Harvard School of Public Health, Department of Nutrition, relative to a community nutrition educa- tion program; between the Commonwealth, through the Department of Public Health, and the Harvard School of Public Health to nake available to the School funds not to exceed $1000 for the specific purpose of processing statistical data gathered from the Public Health Nursing Advisors' Work Measurement Study and preparation and submission of an acceptable report; between the Commonwealth, through the Department of Public Health, and the Boston University Computer Center to begin a statistical analysis of Vaccination Assistance Project survey data within the first project year ending August 31, 1$)6^; and between the Commonwealth, through the Depart- ment of Public Health, and the Boston University School of Graduate Dentistry relative to a Dental Public Health Unit in Orthodontics. New contracts for the care and treatment of persons with tuber- culosis were approved and signed by the Department of Public Health and Norfolk County Hospital, Worcester County Sanatorium and Middlesex County Sanatorium. Special Matters During the year a number of internal changes were made in the Department's structure in an attempt to up-date the organization, The majority of changes involved those divisions, sections and institutions with a particular interest in the field of chronic disease. In October 1963 the licensing program for nursing, convalescent and rest homes was transferred from the Division of Hospital Facilities to the Division of Cancer and Chronic Disease, and the name of that Division was changed to omit "Cancer" placing the emphasis on chronic disease control. It was felt that this move would not only improve the chronic disease program but would also allow for a more intensive nursing home licensing program on a regional basis. In May of 196k Dr. Harry T. Phillips, Director of the Division of Chronic Disease, was appointed Superintendent of the Lemuel Shattuck Hospital to replace Dr. William H. H. Turville, who had retired after fourteen years as Superintendent . The following month the Hospital was transferred from the Division of Sanatoria and Tuberculosis Control to the Division of Chronic Disease and Dr. Phillips was given over-all supervision of the Department's chronic disease program, including the Lemuel Shattuck Hospital. Plans are now underway for the transfer of the offices of the Division of Chronic Disease to office space in the Hospital. In viexj- of the fact that only one of the Department's hospitals now treats patients with tuberculosis and the increasing census of chronically ill patients, it is hoped that, if the integration of Lemuel Shattuck Hospital and the Division of Chronic Disease proves satisfactory, other hospitals of the Department will also be more closely affiliated with the community programs The operation of the Division of Food and Drugs has been greatly expanded over the past several years . In an effort to establish a more efficient program and to more clearly identify the various fields of in- terest within the Division, seven new sections -- making a total of ten — were approved by the Public Health Council in February I96U. 8. Also in February 1964, Dr. Gabriel Nadeau was appointed to the position of Superintendent of the Rutland Hospital. Dr. Nadeau. replaces Dr. Paul Dufault, who retired after nearly forty years of service to the Commonwealth Since the early 1900* s the Department of Public Health has used the Bussey Institute property located in Jamaica Plain and owned by Harvard University for its several laboratories. During this period the Department has renovated, added to and constructed additional buildings. In 1958 the University notified the Department of its plan to sell the property. Since that time legislation has been passed appropriating funds and numerous appraisals of the property have been made by the University and the Commonwealth . Early in 1963 an agreement was reached relative the purchase price and, with the cooperation of the office of the Att' General, all legal papers were drawn up and processed.
