Lydia's Public
By Carolyn Inglett, R. N.
Lydia Mill Nurse
Public health is the health
of everyone and a very important
subject at the Lydia
plant. It is divided into six
basic functions:
(1) Communicable disease
control in which we try to
prevent disease from occurring,
but if it does, preventing
its spread to others. Many
of the communicable diseases
may be prevented bv "shots"
which give immunity to the
disease. Typhoid fever is an
example where we can take
3 shots to prevent developing
typhoid. After the basic three
shots we then should take a
booster shot each year, or wait
three years and then again
take three shots again. In addition
to the shots, we should
practice good sanitation?
such as keeping our homes
screened, and being careful
of the milk and water we
drink.
On four days during last
month we had typhoid
clinics at the Lydia Mill
clinic and 300 people availed
themselves of shots from
the public health nurses.

and the public health
doctor. Dr. Baldwin.
(2) Sanitation of our surroundings
has made much
progress in the Lydia village
with replacement of privies
with modern sewerage disposal.
Efforts are being made
to remove all mosquito breeding
places. Those who know
of mosquito breeding spots
should report them to the
Lvdia clinic. Those who raise
pigs and cows should spray
the pens frequently with a
good fly killer, and don't
throw out tin cans which collect
water and breed mosquitoes.

vice to expectant mothers
and their babies. Expectant
mothers should consult their
family physician early and
remain under his care. Young
children should be given shots
which prevent many of the
childhood diseases.
(4) Laboratory work. The
public health service checks
our water and milk and inspects
eating places for cleanliness.

The service keeps records of
all communicable diseases and
immunizations.
(6) Health education.
Through moving pictures and
newspaper articles.
The Lydia Mill clinic ties
in closely with this service in
aiding the health, happiness,
and "well-fare" of our people.
(The Lydia clinic is under
the capable supervision of
Mrs. Carolyn Inglett, a registered
nurse, university graduate
and who has had a fine
background of experience in
several hospitals. ? Editor's
note.)
