There is not in existence at present a single hospital in the Administrative County which can be regarded from all standpoints as satisfying the require- ments of the Ministry of Health in the matter of adequate facilities and arrange- ment for the isolation of the infectious sick. The nearest approach to complete facilities is the hospital provided by the Bedwellty Urban Council at Cwmsyfiog, but here again we have partially corrugated buildings crowded upon area, with other defects which prevent one giving it a bill of excellence; others offering facilities which are not adequate, but which under present circumstances could be made reasonable without a great outlay of capital expenditure, are the Hospitals at Llanfoist, Monmouth and Chepstow.
