This paper deals with the problem of an overworked National Health Service. It tries to show how increased services at community level could lessen the burden of the hospital services. It outlines the part played by technological aids with the history of some, and stresses the need not only for medically trained ancillary help, but also for the involvement of other trained disciplines and lawmen. It mentions present day technological aids and discusses how they might be improved. It hints that all are capable of making an emphatic contribution, however small, to those in need.
