Hundreds By Barbara Hawthorne Feature Editor "Take one of these capsules every four hours and if your cold isn't better by tomorrow, come back." This statement is a common one made at the Wallace Thompson Infirmary on campus. Every day students are similarly advised by one of the nurses or Dr. Robert B. McNulty, University physician. This building is one of the ones which is open practically all year. It only closes during Christmas vacation, between the spring ses sion and the summer session, and between the summer session and fall football practice. "Approximately 100-200 stu dents take advantage of the pro vided medical services each day," McNulty said. At one time or an other all of the students visit the campus infirmary. Capacity The number of bed patients av erages from seven to 40 each day. The infirmary can care for 40 bed patients, although more beds could be added if they were needed, said McNulty. The build ing has two wards for men and one ward for women. Also, there are four semi-private rooms for quarantined patients. "The infirmary is equipped to take care of all type cases except surgery. If a patient requires sur gery, he is taken to one of the lo .cal hospitals for treatment and later returned here for convales cence," said McNulty. Special diets are prepared in ,the infirmary kitchen where all of the food for patients was for merly prepared. Regular diets are now prepared in Russell House and transferred to the infirmary. Infirmary Staff Besides McNulty, the staff is composed of a dietician and house keeper, five graduate nurses and a technician. Also, a student as sistant, Bill Hudson, lives in the building. Students receive medicine with out expense except for special cases and then it is provided at cost to the student. The regular fee for a bed patient is $2.25 per day which only covers the cost of food. "Most of the students who visit the infirmary have colds or other minor illnesses," said McNulty. , When asked if there were any plans to improve the infirmary, McNulty replied, "No. There are no immediate plans." McNulty is on call 24 hours a day but has office hours from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Nurses take care of all patients when the doctor is not there, but he is called in case of emergency. Former Position Before accepting his position at the University, McNulty carried on a private practice in Colum bia. He has been employed as full time University physician since July of 1964. The Wallace Thompson Infir mary was built after Miss Ann H. Jeter in 1904 presented the Uni versity with a gift of $15,000 for the erection of an infirmary in honor of her nephew, Wallace Thompson, a Carolina alumnus. Onec of the former matrons of the. infirmary is Mrs. Addie Mad den who served from 1904 until her retirement in 1938. She was madec matron emeritus upon her reti remen t. Mr's. Madden, now 861, lives in Columbia.
