Public health panel ends after 41-year run in Orange County
Goshen January 1 marks the dissolution of the Orange County Public Health Committee after 41 years of service led by nursing care. The final meeting in the County Building saw its functions folded into the new county board of health and health district under Health Commissioner Dr Norman I Condit. Monica Trautz remains on the new board as vice chair and Frank W Masterson joins the health board. The department has grown to 20 nurses, earned state home health agency certification, and collected about 16000 dollars in fees in 1968. a director of public health nursing may be hired and drugs may be purchased via state contracts as the 1969 budget proposes. The Goshen nurses building will be turned over to the county health district.
