Allied Health Programs
Are Announced at DJC
Among the specialized fields
of study offered at Dalton

homes, public health agencies,
and physicians’ offices in
Northwest Georgia, the Allied
Health program was established
at Dalton Junior College
through a federal appropriation
under the Appalachian Act. It
is administered through the
Northwest Georgia Regional
Health Advisory Council with
Norman Burkett, president of
Hamilton Memorial Hospital,
as council chairman, and Jack
Whelchd as executive director
STAFF

pital administrator at Clinch
Memorial in Homerville, Ga , is
director of the program at
DJC. The college receives the
cooperation of two local health
institutions, Hamilton Memo
rial Hospital and Wood Dale

environment necessary for
students to receive practical,
on-the-job experience
Other faculty members in

record librarian and director of

nician program; Jane Hudson,
director of the Medical labor

They grow plants, too—instead
of field crops, they tend
window boxes of flowers or a
formerly vacant, litter-filled
lot, now brimming with
radishes, tomatoes or cucum
bers. For information on 4-H

Students in this program are
trained in more effective and
efficient record keeping in hos
pitals, health departments, and
physicians’ offices. The greater
increase in the use of health
insurance and the resultant
documentation have created a
need for personnel so trained
in medical records procedures.
