Download or read book Hawaii s Need of Medical Inspection of Schools Classic Reprint written by Winfred Howard Babbitt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-07 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hawaii's Need of Medical Inspection of Schools In a small minority of cases were such defects known to parents, teachers, or the children themselves. A local application may not be out of place. Somewhat over a year ago word reached me that a child in one of our city schools had been severely whipped and 1 was asked to look into the case. The teacher admitted whipping the child for inattentiveness and failure to obey orders. A careful inquiry developed the fact that the child was almost totally deaf in the. right ear and that when spoken to from that side she either did not hear at all or so indistinctly as not to comprehend what was said. The condition was unknown to parent, teacher and child. Hawaii has over 18,000 public school children. An examination here would doubtless produce startling results. For the year ending April 30, 1908, the government dispensary gave 4,605 treatments for trachoma to children from only twelve of our public schools in this city. How many private treatments were given, and how many in other places needed treatment, I do not know. Massachusetts has developed a system for testing sight and hearing, which may be applied by the teachers themselves, and the result of one year's work proved its value. Three hundred and forty-nine towns reported 432,937 children examined, with 96,609 or 22 Jo defective in sight and 27,387, or 6% defective in hearing. Physicians state that teachers properly instructed can discover from 75 to 85 per cent, of cases needing attention. The simplicity and effectiveness of the Massachusetts system commend it for adoption here. Exhibit No. 1 shows this system in detail. The cuts of the boy on Card No. 2 are a fair sample of results which may be reasonably expected where treatment is given. The above tests arc ones involving a minimum of time and expense with promise of an unlimited amount of resultant good. Such tests, with arrangements made for furnishing glasses or medical attention at moderate cost to those who could pay, and assistance to those who could not, would remove one great obstacle to the proper development of the child. The primary object of medical inspection in schools was the detection of infectious and contagious diseases and the exclusion of pupils likely to spread same. An elaborate plan of inspection was adopted in New York City. Children having diphtheria, measles, scarlet fever, chicken pox, whooping cough, mumps, acute catarrhal infection of the nose or throat, pediculosis, contagious eye or skin diseases, were sent home. In the first month, 10,567 children were excluded from school attendance. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Medical Inspection of School Children written by W. Leslie Mackenzie and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Medical Inspection of School Children: A Text-Book for Medical Officers O Schools, Medical Officers of Health School Managers and Teachers The Report of the recent Royal Commission on Physical Training (Scotland) contains a definite recommendation that "provision be made for regular medical inspection of the children in all schools." In the present volume, an attempt is made to give form and substance to this recommendation. It is obvious that before such regular medical inspection can become a reality, the school manager, the teacher, and the medical inspector must be brought into definite relation. To do this necessitates a detailed study of the administrative organisations, the routine of school teaching, and the limits of useful and practical medical inspection. Accordingly, this book has been specially devised to assist the school administration to organise, the teachers to train themselves in preliminary inspection, and the medical inspectors to economise time and energy. Professor Matthew Hay, to whose fertility of design and method the Edinburgh and Aberdeen investigations owed so much, has been kind enough to prepare for this volume full descriptions and illustrations of the special anthropo-metrical appliances devised by him. His many other contributions to the substance of the book are acknowledged in the appropriate places. Dr. Edwin Matthew, who acted as chief assistant in the Edinburgh investigation, drafted the chapters on the Eye, the Heart, the Circulation, and the Skin; he furnished materials for the sections on Lungs, Nervous Diseases, Adenoids, and Tonsils, and I have, in all the clinical chapters, had the advantage of his special knowledge and experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Medical Inspection of Schools in Great Britain England and Wales. - School medical inspection in Great Britain as now conducted is the cumulative result of a number of legislative acts. Some of these were not specifically medical inspection acts, but inevitably implied medical inspection for their successful operation. The Blind and Deaf Act, passed in 1893 as an education act, was the first of these. To carry out its provisions for the segregation of the blind, the semiblind, the deaf, and the semideaf, skilled medical cooperation proved necessary and was furnished. From this care of the blind and the deaf it was an easy and natural step for the education department to give special attention to other mentally or physically defective children. In 1896 a committee of the department was created to investigate the teaching of defective children (not idiots and imbeciles) and to recommend improvements in such instruction. This committee reported in 1898 with a recommendation that each local authority be required to segregate and give special attention to all children in the elementary schools who, on account of mental or physical defect or of epilepsy, could be better taught in special schools. A permissive act was passed in 1899. This has not been adopted universally, but many local authorities have adopted its provisions. The determination of defectives and epileptics in the meaning of the act was delegated to a qualified medical practitioner who must be approved by the education department. This is the first parliamentary act authorizing the employment of physicians for work in the schools, aid the work done under it constitutes an important part of school medical inspection in Great Britain.1 This bulletin comprises the results of personal Investigations supplemented by official reports covering the entire work of medical inspection as developed in Great Britain.

Download or read book Medical Inspection Legislation Classic Reprint written by Leonard P. Ayres and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Medical Inspection Legislation The first state law providing for the medical inspection of school children appears to have been passed by Connecticut in 1899. It did not provide for the complete sort of inspection now carried on in many cities and states, but only for the testing of eyesight by teachers every three years. Complete medical inspection with examinations for the detection of physical defects was first provided for by state enactment in the permissive law of New Jersey passed in 1903. This was followed by the mandatory law of Massachusetts in 1906, which has been several times amended, and which has served as the basis for a majority of the bills which have since been presented in other state legislatures. At the present time (May, 1911), six states have mandatory laws, ten have permissive ones, and in two states and the District of Columbia medical inspection is carried on under regulations promulgated by the boards of health and having the force of law. The fact that the Massachusetts statute is the oldest of the laws now in force shows that the whole body of legislative enactments which crystallize the views, beliefs and results of experience of educators and physicians, is of distinctly recent origin. Nevertheless, the past five years have furnished a large body of experience under varying conditions and in widely separated localities, and the lessons of this experience can be read in the substantial agreement of a majority of the laws in several salient features. This is graphically shown by the tabular presentation of the principal features of the different laws and regulations printed on page 6. On four points there is substantial agreement. The first is that the administration of the provisions of the laws is placed in the hands of the school authorities. The second, third and fourth are respectively placing in the hands of school physicians the inspection for contagious diseases, the physical examinations, and the inspection of teachers, janitors and buildings. In six cases provision is made for testing of vision and hearing by the teachers. A clear idea of the principal provisions of the different laws may be gained by reading the abstract beginning on page 7.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Need, Objects, and Method of the Medical Inspection of Primary Schools: A Paper Read Before the Medical Officers of Schools Association, December 13th, 1906 In conclusion, I cannot leave the subject of medical inspection without reference to the important part which the teacher Will have to play. Indeed, our hope is in him and in her. The success and the advantages to be gained will be in proportion to the harmonious working together of doctor and teacher. The former, to be really helpful, will have much to learn at the hands of the latter, while the teacher must, from his earliest days onwards, be carefully trained in all matters relating to the hygiene of the school and of the scholar. There is no happier augury for this coming century than this elose association between the doctor and the teacher.

Any opinions here expressed are not to be taken as official. I have the good fortune to live in one of those areas -forty-seven in number, outside the Metropolis - whose education authorities had realized that their powers to provide for the medical inspection of their school children involved an important public duty, and had acted accordingly, some years before the recent legisla tion rendering medical inspection compulsory from january Ist, 1908.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Medical Inspection of Girls in Secondary Schools The Education Act of i87o compelled every child to enter the schools. Many of them were ill-fed. Often through ignorance, occasionally through the carelessness of their parents, children suffering from various pathological but remedi able conditions were attending school, though unable to profit properly from the instruction given. It became evident that the money spent in Education was to a large extent wasted. Various authorities began to take the matter up, and in 1891 the London School Board appointed a medical officer. In 1893, Dr. James Kerr, whose name stands out most prominently in the history of medical inspection of school children, was appointed to be the school doctor of the Bradford School authority.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Medical and Sanitary Inspection of Schools: For the Health Officer, the Physician, the Nurse and the Teacher The history of medical inspection of schools includes the history of both the school doctor and the school nurse. England was one of the first countries to look after the physical needs of the school 'child. There nurses were appointed before physicians; in America the process was reversed. School nursing may be considered as a development of visiting nursing. The latter originated in England about 1860 and reached America in 1877, when a New York City Mission sent the first trained nurse into the homes of the poor. Before 1905 the work was sporadic, but since then it has gained considerable headway. The school nurse, representing a new idea in visiting nursing, began work in Liverpool in 1887, when nurses paid daily visits to a few schools for the purpose of attending to minor injuries and complaints. They also called at the homes of children who had more serious ailments and urged the parents to obtain the services of a physician. The early school nurses were volunteers, and it was not until 1901 that the London School Board appointed salaried municipal school nurses, with definite duties assigned. They examined the children for contagious skin diseases and excluded all cases found. The nurses did not treat the cases, and consulted only occasionally with the school medical officer. Later the nurse tested the vision and hearing, and kept a record of the physical examinations of the pupils.
