Physical therapy treatment clinics conducted ....................51 f. Treatments by physical therapist (P. T. clinics and home) . . 592 Nutrition Section The Section has been gratified by the increasing demands for nutrition and dietary consultant service from all sections during the past two years. Demands have come from a greater number of local health departments as well as other agencies, institutions, and organizations. The types of assistance requested have been more varied and there has been more success in incorporating nutrition into the generalized public health program. During the past year, 1955, nutrition and dietary service was given in a total of eighty-eight counties. The most common criticism of the service continues to be the small amount of time each month that a nutrition consultant can spend in a county. The attempt to have each nutritionist provide some direct services in ten counties places severe restrictions on the amount and type of work which can be carried on in each county. There are numerous requests for direct service to individuals in the counties but the size of the Nutrition Section staff has made it imperative for each consultant to spend the major portion of her time working with professional persons who are permanently located in the counties and whose work deals primarily with individuals. A number of health officers have requested the full-time assignment of a State Board of Health nutritionist to their counties and many have requested that the nutritionist spend additional days in the county; this, obviously, is impossible. Some of these counties need a full-time nutritionist and the health officers are to be commended for recognizing the contribution a nutritionist could make in improving the health of the people. One county has employed a well qualified public health nutritionist within the past two years. This makes two local health departments in the state having trained nuritionists on the staff.
