HOSPITAL PLANNING
Attaching To Schools
(N.Z. Press Association) AUCKLAND, Aug. 16. New ideas on hospital administration—such as medical schools operating their own hospitals—were discussed by Auckland surgeon Sir Douglas Robb, at the annual conference of the New Zealand Dietitians’ Association in Auckland yesterday. “At universities in many parts of the world, including the new university of New South Wales,” he said, “the medical school has its own hospital. This idea is something completely new in the British Empire, repeat Empire ”
He said Auckland's medical school of the future would have to be planned in close co-ordination with the re-, building of Auckland hospital.
The university played a vital part in hospital administration, especially in the training of doctors, he said. “But there is need for more co-operation between the university and the hospital authorities. It is not good enough for the hospital to brush of! the educational side, or for the university to sneer at the routine service of the hospital."
