A Health and Clean Food Fxhibiticni was held for eight days in six Parishes. NURSING HOMES. Two applications for registration of premises as Nursing Homes were received during the year. In one case it was found that the proposal would be more appropriately dealt with under Section 37 of the National Assistance Act, 1948, and the matter was passed to the County Welfare Committee and the premises were eventually registered as an Old Persons’ Home. In the other case, the premises were not considered suitable and the necessary Order was made refusing registration. The approved accommodation of one of the existing Homes was varied from five maternity and three other cases to two maternity and six other cases, and in another case approval was given for the accommodation to be increased from seven to eight other cases. Mainly on account of staffing difficulties four of the registered Nursing Homes providing a total accommodation for fourteen maternity and nine other cases closed during the year. There were five Nursing Homes registered at the end of 1951 and these provided accommodation for eighteen maternity cases and fifty-one other cases. The Inspectors made twenty-seven visits of inspection during the year.](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b29925332_0065.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
