Mrs. John Cotton, Ashland, presided. Dr. Bradley explained that the Ideal child guidance clinic has at least three staff members, a psychiatrist, a psychiatric social worker and a clinical psycholo gist. The psychiatrist slated that a child guidance clinic, extreme ly expensive to maintain, actu ally should be "at the end of the list" of services which a com munity supplies for children. Other Services A community should be sure first that the schools and churches are operating as they should, that there is a sound public health program, good medical men, an adequate re creational program and adequate counseling by courts and other agencies before any thought should be given to a child guid ance clinic, Dr. Bradley said. "The clinic is licked unless all other services operate well." Dr. Bradley said. A clinic should not be established unless a commun ity definitely wants one, he added, and the community must first be completely acquainted with what a clinic can do. One in Portland Dr. Bradley explained that the only child guidance clinic in the state is in Portland, and said that the University of Oregon medi cal school has been sending psy chiatrists to various cities of the state once a month for consul- Phone 3-3641 a; SIM tation work. He pointed out thai this is helpful, but since the vis its are only monthly, with littli or no trained personnel in each community to carry on instruc tions or" treatment between vis its, results are not always the best. Dr. Bradley explained some thing of the operation methods of the clinic staff members, and said the staff must be highly trained and "work as a team" with one assigned to the child in question and another to the par ents. They can be most useful under correct conditions, he added. Always Expensive He said psychiatric treatment is always expensive, and that few can afford to pay for the services of a private psychia trist. During the question period Dr. Bradley said that time had proven false two assumptions which had at first seemed "rea sonable." One is that a child guidance clinic always lessens juvenile delinquency, and an other that psychiatric treatment for children prevents mental ill ness as adults.
