OTAKI HOSPITAL
IS IT. TO BE MODERNISED? A NON-COMMITTAL MINISTER (Special to “The Evening Post.”) OTAKI, This Day. It was reported recently that the Mayor of Otaki had been advised, that the Otaki Hospital, about which there has been protracted controversy, was to be brought up-to-date. While in Wellington- on Wednesday the Mayor of Otaki asked the Hon. J A. Young (Minister of Health) what was to be done in regard to modernising the hospital. He recoived a noncommittal reply. The Minister expressed a wish that the Otaki people and Palmerston North Hospital Board should work more in harmony. The reply has by no means pleased local residents, and unless something is done at an early date a deputation of prominent residents will wait on the Prime Minister.
The hospital for some time past has been practically closed, patients having to bo taken to Palmerston North for treatment.
