iesensitization SHOTS are given. Respiratory infections, of which the cold s the most common, are traditionally the nost frequent disorders for which students ;eek medical aid. Colds are never treated rightly because they can multiply into more ierious diseases or cause epidemics on :ampus. Dther common ailments to student health are CUTE tonsillitis (as opposed to a HOMELY onsillitis), pharyngitis (sore throat), ;motional conflicts, skin disorders and vlONOnucleosis. Accidents of all kinds are prevalent on all college campuses, )f which automible, motorcycle and bicycle iccidents are the most frequent. Within he last few years, more serious conditions lave been treated than ever before. A lumber of MALIGNANCIES, an acute :ongestive HEART FAILURE, cases of MALARIA •elapse, DRUG overdosee, VENERAL DISEASE ind post-ABORTION complications have all jeen at least initially treated by the HEALTH Center staff. Besides these usual hospital services, the Health Center also offers dental- something you can REALLY get your TEETH into! Although utilization of the dental services has been increasing, facility and budgetary limits restrict the Health Center to only one dentist, Dr. Ralph Elliott. The services he offers are emergency care and some routing care, including care for special programs, such as Upward Bound. Even so, during the average school year, the Dental Clinic serves about 2,000 patients and averages over 10 visits per day. Dr. Elliott performs dental restorations, x-rays, extractions, and fabrication of dental crowns (fit for a KING). In types of care, he handles in excess of 1,600 emergencies and injuries. The remaining cases are consultation or routine. DRUGS! SEX! BOOZE! VD! You name it and The Health Center ' s probably got it— at least information about it, anyway. And if YOU want it, you can have it, too! For free (more magic!). Ms. AnnaBelle PENSON, Coordinator of Health Education Services, provides films, slides, film strips, pamphlets, counseling and information on everything from abortion to venereal disease.

The EMERGENCY ROOM at the Hudson Health Center is open all times the Outpatient Clinic is closed. Ambulatory emergency patients (the walkees) enter the Center at the west end of the building, behind Voigt Hall. Those who are unable to walk (the wheelees) enter through the ambulance entrance at the east end of the building, by Seigfred Hall and the Music Building. The medical staff does not make HOUSE CALLS (but who does?), so all students requesting aid must come to the Health Center. A staff member is available at all times and immediate treatment can be provided by the nurse on duty who can, should your MALADY warrant, notify the physician on call for further attention. The Clinical Laboratory and X-ray departments perform both routine and special tests during the Outpatient Medical ailinic clinic hours. Each can also provide emergency services if necessary. This year about 17,000 LABORATORY TESTS were performed and over 7,000 X-RAY EXPOSURES were made. A full-time registered pharmacist, Don White, runs the PILL FACTORY at our next stop, and dispenses medications prescribed by the physicians. Fees assessed each patient for the medications are cost prices of the medicine. No rip-off here. This is truly MAGICAL! Therapeutic and rehabilitative physical therapy is also available at the Hudson Health Center if ordered by a staff physician The Physical Therapy Department has a sitzbath, used normally for treatment of hemorrhoids (HORRORS!) and other such ailments. (The sitzbath is the BUTT of alota jokes.) Because the sitzbath has a constantly recycling water system, during the 1970 Spring riot, after sterilization, it was used extensively for washing out the eyes of patients caught in pepper gas and tear gas. For regular physical therapy, however, over 4,000 various treatments are performed each year on various rehabilitative apparati. Moderate charges are assessed patients for the usage of the Immunization and Allergy Department. INJECTIONS (shudder) are administered for the prevention or modification of disease.
