Child Health Consultations In
County Nov. 4 to 24 

Because of the beneficial results obtained by child health consultations held in Albany County in 1922, the State Department of Health has been repeatedly urged to conduct another series. In answer to the demand Dr. Huntington Williams, District State Health Officer, at the request of the Albany County Health Service, and the local health officers, has arranged for a number of such consultations to be held in the county during the period of November 4th to the 24th. 

Each consultation is open to 20 well children of pre-school age whose parents have made appointments with the local committee beforehand and will consist of careful physical examination of all parts of the body by a physician and a complete report to the family doctor for his advice to the parents. The consultations are conducted mainly to teach the mother to keep her healthy children healthy by having them examined periodically by her own physician.
There is no expense connected with the station consultation and no medical treatment will be administered. 

In order that the plans may be carried out successfully, in each community the various committees will be provided with appointment cards and will visit the homes where there are infant and preschool children to explain to the parents the object and reasons for Children’s Health Consultations. Each mother will be given a definite appointment time. 

Mothers bringing their children to the consultations will be requested to be present fifteen minutes before the appointed time, so that there will be the least possible amount of time lost, for one person being late can easily disarrange the schedule of the physician for a whole day. Appointments will be made for children between the age of six months and six years of age and who are apparently well. No children other than those for whom appointments have been made will be examined.
