Members present were: James W. Lambie, <br />Acting Chairman; Dr. Charles Ellicott and Robert C. Heustis, <br />Director of Public Health. <br />Minutes of the January 31, 1972 meeting were approved by <br />the Board as read. <br />Mr. Heustis reported that oral permission had already been <br />received from the Board of Selectmen, Town Manager and Chief <br />HARD OF Corr for the Hard of Hearing Mobile Unit to be parked in the <br />HEARING circle in front of Cary Hall if the trailor will not block the <br />MOBILE. normal flow of traffic. Two alternate sites have been discussed; <br />on Massachusetts Avenue in front of Cary Hall or at the Red Cross <br />Building on Hancock Street. <br />CLINICS <br />The technician will be at a meeting eary in April to orient <br />any person interested in the operation of the clinic. <br />Dr. Ellicott suggested a paper size announcement be sent <br />to each doctor for posting in their waiting rooms. <br />After some discussion it was decided that a stiring com- <br />mittee would not be necessary. Mr. Heustis said he would keep <br />the Board informed. <br />Mr. Heustis said he had checked with Dr. Waterman, State <br />Health Department and two or more live virus vaccines may be <br />administered during a single office or clinic visit. <br />The birth rate for Lexington for the past year was about <br />250 and we distributed more than 4000 doses of vaccine to either <br />the private doctors or through clinics. This would indicate <br />that most of the new babies are being taken care of by private <br />physicians. Mr. Heustis said we had thought of a clinic in the <br />office and offering any vaccine the child needs. <br />Dr. Ellicott suggested a check -type questionaire be put <br />in the paper, the mother could check off what the child has had <br />and what the child needs and bring this to clinic with her. <br />GJ <br />cr <br />00,4 <br />1 <br />1 <br />1 <br />
