Til ft ALLA .\ 1 A MMIKI.I AN AM) MAVS ASSOCIATED Chamber of Commerce Commit tee Finds Complaints Are Groundless. (fleers of the Atlanta Associated iarities discussed with gratification , iu rsday the thoroughgoing indorse- <ent of their work by the special unnittee of the Atlanta Chamber of inmerce. The committee, named as the re sult of several minor complaints in respect to tho Associated Charities’ i ethods, found the complaints to be groundless and discovered so much o commend that they reported at •mglh on the good work of the or ganization, and urged that contribu- i us for charity be given to the As sociated Charities in preference to any similar body, because of the cer- i.Lnty that it would be Judiciously ex - iended. Only two criticisms were offered, me was that the organization, prob ably erred in being too painstaking in llie keeping - of some of its records Change Recommended. I was recommended that certain jf the records in respect to treatment > r easels be less voluminous. In this vay it was thought clerical expenses •vould be minimized. Another recommendation was made at the records of disbursements of ends to individuals be made more omplete by obtaining a receipt from lie recipient. Referring to the work of tiie Asso rted Charities, the report s&ys: It is our opinion that the best work eing done is along the lines of treat- ijn nt and prevention of diseases imong the poor. The association di- iefes this work into two phases. First, « treatment of diseases in tho indi vidual family, second, undertaking to , lease and improve the general fa- lities for treating and preventing meases and sickness in a community, -specially in relation to the poor. •in regard to the first phase, the issoeiation endeavors always to see I that every needy family concerning | whom llu re is any indication of dis- I ease receives medical attention, lr. I securing - such treatment for these ! people, they use tiie Grady Hospital, college clinics and the services of pri vate practitioners. For the month of October, 1913. almost 100 cases were I referred for treatment to private practitioners who gave their services free. “During the past year the associa tion expended more than $600 for medicines alone, which they distrib uted to the poor, and a large sum of money was used to supply suitable eyeglasses. During the past year the association has secured the services of physicians for 958 families and di rected to clinics and places in the hospital members of 557 families, se cured nurses in 140 families, and fur nished glasses and medicines to mem bers of 583 families. “The second phase of the medical work has Us relation to the improve ment of the general facilities and the prevention of disease. Students Aid in Work. “They have recently organized a medical students’ committee, among the fourth-year men of the Atlanta Medical t’ollege, whose members they use to supplement the work of the two city physicians. These students voluntee • for work in the home* of the poor of the city, where it is not always necessary to have a more ex perienced doctor. From this commit tee they hope to develop among the students such appreciation of the need of hospital social service that, in time, a department of medical social service will be established in the Gra dy Hospital.
