Book Description

Excerpt from Thirty-Eighth Biennial Report of the North Carolina State Board of Health: July 1, 1958 June 30, 1960 Also, Mr. Jarrett presented proposed revised rules and regulations gov erning the sanitation of restaurants, hotels and motels. He stated that his Division had worked with the N. C. Association of Quality Restaurants, N. C. Hotel Association and the N. C. Motel Association in the revision of these regulations, and that committees of these three associations were in accord with what was being proposed with the exception of two items, and had requested that these two items be presented to the Board for discussion. They were: (1) Item #17 relating to milk and milk products in which they requested that reference to approval of bulk milk dispensers by local board of health milk ordinance be deleted; and, (2) Item #18 relative to medical health certificate changes. Mr. Jarrett discussed these requests in detail, and recommended that reference to local milk regulations be deleted from Item #17 of the restaurant regulations. Dr. Baker moved the adoption of the regulation provided that the phrase contained in #17 where permitted by the regulations of the local board of health be deleted; and that a committee be appointed by the President to further study health examina tions and health certificates for employees of restaurants, hotels, and motels, and to bring recommendations to the Board for revision. Motion seconded by Dr. Edwards, and carried. Vice-president Bender appointed the follow ing to serve on this committee working with Dr. Norton and Mr. J arrettz Dr. Morrison, Dr. Edwards and Mr. Lutz. These rules and regulations are to become effective October 1, 1958. Dr. Baker discussed a proposed Sea Level Hospital addition for crippled children as information for the Board. No action by the Board at this time was considered necessary as adequate machinery has been set up previously for the handling of this matter. As information, and by request of Dr. Walter Hunt of Raleigh, Dr. Norton discussed the use of tetanus toxoid instead of antitoxin in trauma cases. There was much discussion but it seemed to be the consensus of the group that this subject was not within the province of the State Board of Health to suggest specific handling Of these cases, in each of which the attending physician uses his best judgment to fit the need.
