DAVIS The Brownsville-East New York, East Flatbush community has serv1ng it a group of women whose praise needs heralding. The special needs of the indigent of this particular environment looked sick. after by the Medical Social Service Department of the -El Hospital. Because this department was established by the Women's lary, it is the conscientious members who deserve the credit.

In one tiny room in the hospital the Medical Social Service Departwas born in March, 1929, unment, the supervision of the auxiliary head at that time, the late Mrs. Bertha Dlugasch. With a director.

Now the staff consists of, besides Miss Wittenberg and her secretary, a clerk and two case workers, and cooperating volunteers. Two separate cubicles also are provided the workers for their interviews. Among the many services which the Social Service Department renders are the following: providing convalescent care for those who need it, arranging for housekeeping services, temporary placement of children whose mothers are hospitalized, arranging for the placement of the chronically ill patients and aged persons, and providing Summer therapeutic care for the malnourished, cardiac, and other physically handicapped children.

Having been admitted to the hospital for laboratory tests, she was advised that an operation would be necessary. She became very much upset and wanted to leave. despite the doctor's warning that this would be detrimental to her health. The case then was referred to the Social Service Department, SO that the social worker might learn the reasons for the patient's refusal to remain the hospital. She visited Mrs.

A the ward and was able to establish a good relationship with her. The patient soon explained that she was anxious to get well but must return home. A neighbor had promised care for her two young children a few days but was unable to continue caring for them beyond that time. The social worker assured patient that arrangements could made temporary to place shelter. the Mrs.

Upon her return Mrs. well enough to take over her was full home responsibilities. Service the women who serve Beth- El Hospital.

In earlier days of the Women's Auxillary they aided in securing such things as linens, glassware, the hospital and now the auxiliary's heart soul is in furthering work ands social service and volunteer committees. When the war caused shortages In help, the auxiliary was quick answer the needs of the hospital and formed a group of women. known now, as in 1942, as Volunteers of World War II of Beth Hospital. The very first volunteer to answer the volunteer call Mrs. Selma Zuckerman who helped in the cardiac clinic, assisting doctor and nurse by taking case histories, interpreting doctors' orders to patients, and assisting in dressing and dressing the patients.

The outpatient and inpatient clinics were manned by volunteers assisting the doctors and nurses. The women also played an important part as receptionists in the hospital, clerical aides, and assisted various administrative departments. During the war shortages they made every effort to make the patients the hospital comfortable and happy. In order to do this at the suggestion of the United Hospital Fund patients free lending library started in 1943, and has been continuing ever since a as one of outstanding projects of the auxiliary and its volunteer group.
