Dr. Hillhouse might be out for around six <br />weeks as he has 240'hours of paid vacation time coming. If we have only <br />one nurse`clinic,per week'.for issuing birth control pills and one doctor's <br />clinic either weekly-;or every two weeks for checking the patients, we <br />could keep things running smoothly until Dr. Hillhouse returns. <br />Our local doctors ' w ' ould be our first preference because they are al- <br />ready carrying liabilit insurance with their practice. Our Ob -Gyn doctors <br />are a little reluctant to step in and help us down here because of so many <br />high -risk patients whom they might not get to see as consistently as they <br />should before delivery. <br />Gene Anderson will re- examine our budget and let us know at the next <br />meeting how.much money we can pay another doctor temporarily. <br />Dr. Strom will be attending the Lamar -Delta County Medical Society. <br />Meeting this week:''and will present to them our need for temporary doctor <br />coverage:; Dr:.
