Douglas Smith, Adminis-
trator of Leisure Lodge Nurs-
ing Home, is implementijng a
quality assurance program es-
pecially designed for the nurs-
ing home by Mrs. Bertha M.
Hegmon, LVN and assistant
administrator.
This program is similar to
that used by hospitals. Mrs.
Lois White, R.N. Director of
Nurses at Wagner General

acquiring material used in the
program with technical assist-
ance given by Mrs. Ramona

ing procedure for collecting
information so that the nursing
home continually evaluates its
performance and require-
ments.
Mrs. Hegmon states the
desire to provide as high a
quality care in the nursing
home as in the hospital and not
only meet the federal stand-
ards but surpass them, there-
by giving the elderly the love
and care they need and de-
serve.

BUILDING A TOWER?
COUNT THE COST
My father pointed out to me a
man in our community who, at
one time, was a minister. "There
was high promise in his life," he
said, "but times were hard and
he turned back."
It’s an old, old story in which all
of us share. "Which of you,
desiring to build a tower, doth
not first sit down and count the
cost?" Universal as the question
is, let’s look at the one who
spoke it-Jesus,
He counted the cost of the jour-
ney from Bethlehem to Golgotha.
And even He, from time to time,
drew on the bank of earnest
prayer for the resources to meet
that day’s demands.
No man starts to build a life
with a complete stockpile of
supplies. No man! It is the height
of foolishness to say "I will be a
self made man." There is no
such person.
The wise believer, in perceiving
the road of life ahead, prays,
"Give me this day my daily bread,
and forgive me this day’s trespasses
as I forgive this day's trespasses of
others against me. And lead me
not into temptation this day,
but deliver me from this day’s
evils.”
Counting the cost?
Count on Him.
-Dr. Paul M. Stevens
