People diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea should lose weight and use continuous positive airway pressure as initial therapy, according to new recommendations from the American College of Physicians.
"“Having ready access to a doctor is vital to high quality healthcare. Yet the busy schedules of consumers and physicians alike often prevent timely attention to routine and urgent healthcare problems in the traditional 9 to 5 physician office visit options. Digital technologies can help overcome the barriers to accessing medical care, yet our survey shows that these tools are not available to most Americans,” said Robert Pearl, M.D., Chairman of the Council of Accountable Physician Practices and CEO of The Permanente Medical Group and the Mid-Atlantic Permanente Medical Group. “Healthcare providers must step up our adoption of these common-sense and available solutions if we are truly going to reform healthcare delivery.” - See www.bettertogetherhealth.org for event webcast - Hosted at the Kaiser Permanente Center for Total Health on November 4, 2015

The Postcard
A Saxon Series postcard that was published by W. R. The card was posted in Margate on Tuesday the 2nd. July 1912 to:
Miss M. Milman,
Dalton House,
Watford.
The message on the divided back of the card was obviously written by a patient at the hospital:
"Many Happy Returns
of the day.
I am still improving - my
temperature has been
normal for 13 days.
Nurse Grove came this
afternoon to see me.
B. Kemp".
The Royal Sea Bathing Hospital
The Royal Sea Bathing Hospital in Margate, Kent was founded by Dr. John Coakley Lettsom, a Quaker physician and philanthropist.
The hospital was one of the earliest - if not the earliest - specialist orthopaedic hospital in the UK, and pioneered the use of open-air treatment for patients with non-pulmonary tuberculosis.
Patients received a variety of treatments, with a central focus on providing patients with the supposed clinical benefits of sunshine, fresh air and sea bathing.
History of the Hospital
The organisation was founded in 1791 to treat poor sufferers from scrofula in London. The original hospital was built between 1793 and 1796. The treatment was based on fresh air and bathing, so from the start it was provided with verandas.
Bathing was done from a bathing machine in the sea. At first the hospital was only open during the summer months, but in 1858 an indoor pool was added to allow bathing all year round.
When possible beds were on the verandah and patients slept there. Only in inclement weather were the beds brought indoors.
The hospital was enlarged around 1880 following the donation of £30,000 by Sir Erasmus Wilson who was a director of the hospital and President of the Royal College of Surgeons.
The enlargement included the Knowles ward, a heated indoor salt-water pool, and the hospital's chapel. The Knowles ward had a flat roof that was used as a promenade by patients.
The hospital continued treating tuberculosis until the 1950's. However, better living conditions, preventative medicine and more modern treatments led to the closure of the hospital in the early 1950's. The whole complex has been turned into apartments.
Architecture of the Hospital
The original building was of yellow brick with stone dressings. The original block remains, but heavily altered, and is the basis of the eastern arm of the quadrangle.
In 1816 the southern wing was added, and in 1820 the northern two storey wing. Around 1853 the buildings were raised to two stories, and a monumental Greek portico added to the front of the original building. At the end of these wings were the wards for children.
The Knowles extensions of 1880 completed the square, forming an internal quadrangle. The entrance portico was now internal, so was moved to the south wing to form the current main entrance.
The Hospital Chapel
The chapel was built 1882–3 by James Knowles as part of Wilson's expansion. It is now a Grade II listed building. The stained glass is by Clayton and Bell, and according to English Heritage:
"A very fine series depicting
miracles and healing plants".
At the west end there is an octagonal font and a wall painting depicting Naaman with his chariot and horse at the door of Elisha. Underneath is Elisha's instruction to:
"Go wash in Jordan seven times
and thy flesh will come again".
The organ is by Henry Willis and has stencilled pipes to the front.
The Mortuary
The mortuary is from the 1880 expansion, and is probably by James Knowles. It is a single storey red brick building with stone dressings and parapet. The entrance has an ogee hood moulding in stone with a lancet window above.
The Statue of Erasmus Wilson
Erasmus Wilson was the donor who paid for the chapel and the 1883 extensions. He is depicted in an academic gown. The statue is in bronze mounted on a granite plinth forming the centrepiece of the hospital's front garden.
The Explosion of an Airship
So what else happened on the day that the card was posted?
Well, on the 2nd. July 1912, the airship Akron exploded in mid-air near Atlantic City, New Jersey, killing the five crew members on board, including pioneer aerial photographer Melvin Vaniman.
Bill Mitchell
The day also marked the birth in Cleveland of the American automobile designer Bill Mitchell. best known iconic vehicle designs for Chevrolet including the Bel Air, the Stingray, and the Camaro. Bill died in 1988.
