Another one of the difficulties that is not only applicable to hospitals, but to all centers of Vocational Training, is the method of disposing of fabricated articles. The amount of paper work necessary incident to this and the fact that the money does not revert to the service but to the general treasury makes it a very unsatisfactory and cumbersome procedure, and some legislative should be asked for to enable the Veterans’ Bureau to proceed as the Indian Service proceeds in disposing of fabricated articles, or articles that are the result of the work of the trainees. Under the new procedure all personnel of the veterans’ Bureau detailed to a hospital are directly under the Medical Officer in Charge. The special work is directed by the Educational Director, who should be considered as one of the staff of the hospital. The greatest criticism that has been partially sustained in regard to Occupational Therapy has been that men who are physically able to do more purposeful things have been kept making trivial things, First, because it was relatively easy to amuse them, Second, Because of some of the articles the patient has derived considerable revenue from the sale thereof. The whole scheme should have in mind, First, The Therapeutic value of the activity, Second, The Prevocational Training of the activity, with the hope that you could shorten the time of hospitalisation and also shorten the time of Vocational Training by the amount of Prevocational work done in a hospital. Prior to the work in Army Hospitals much individual work had been in Physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy, but this was not correlated. One man emphasized the static machine, another man built up his institution upon the basis of Hydrotherapy, another upon the physical exercise, but it remains for the work in the Army Hospitals to coordinate these agencies and present a solid front for Physiotherapy. One of the things that remains yet to be accomplished is a proper coordination between Physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy. It is waste of energy and money to have a Physiotherapy Aide spending hours of time in massaging a stiffened joint when, if her work could be supplemented by properly directed physical exercise in a shop or upon the farm, the same member could be so used as to assist in restoration quite as readily as from massage. It is expressly understood that all the work in Occupational Therapy should be upon prescription of the Medical Officer in Charge of the Hospital or his designated agent, and a proper cooperation between the Medical staff and the staff of the Reconstruction Section will insure most satisfactory results, and that this cooperation of the work will be very necessary in order to secure proper efficiency.
