What to read after Facts about Crippled Children, 1943 (Classic Reprint)?

At the present time many orthopedic surgeons and other physicians who formerly participated in the State services for crippled children are now serving in the armed forces. This has necessitated certain changes in State programs with regard to location and frequency of chnics, hospitals used, and number of physicians and surgeons engaged in providing diag nostic and treatment services. In some instances children in need of care cannot be furnished with the necessary medical, nursing, or physiotherapy services so promptly as formerly. In order to care for those most urgently in need of such services special consideration is given to those children with crippling conditions requiring prompt attention, which, if neglected for any considerable period, would have a detrimental effect upon the welfare of the chi d.

The various war agencies concerned with rationing and priorities of materials have consistently given careful consideration to the special needs of crippled chi dren, particularly as these needs apply to the use of metal for braces, purchase of special shoes, and the rationing of gasoline for_ transporting the children to clinics for treatment. Safeguards have been provided that will permit continuation of the essential services to this group during the present national emergency.
