Examined Patients
Dr. McCain of Sanitarium, who was here yesterday, examined
suspected cases of lung trouble which had been brought to his attention by Dr.
Smith of the Health Board And the physicians of the county. Some of these will go
to Sanitarium for treatment, while others will be kept at home under the care
of local physicians.
Dr. McCain states that 50 per cent of the cases sent to his
institution for treatment recover and are able to resume their work. This
erection of new buildings will enable the institution to care for 39 per cent
more patients than heretofore.
The coming of Dr. McCain to this city to examine suspected
cases here is unusual and is the result
of the activity of Dr. Smith of the Health Department who speaks highly of the
hospital at Sanitarium and says that it should be liberally patronized by North
Carolina people.
