      History

      The Clinic Services Branch was created in 1973 as a branch of the Direct Services Division. It encompassed three former Public Health Division functions: tuberculosis prevention from the old Special Health Services Branch, and occupational chest disease and civil service employee health from the old Environmental Health Services Branch. The new Branch was divided into three units:

      a) Tuberculosis Prevention Service (same as before, but without the Commercial Mass Surveys) b) Industrial Chest Disease (comprised of the Occupational Chest Disease Section and the Commercial Mass Surveys Section from the former TB Prevention Service) c) Employee Health Services (until 1975)

      The Branch was headed by C.H. Rorabeck, Director, who formerly ran the TB Prevention Service for many years. At the end of 1974, the Branch was transferred to the Community Health Division, and when in 1978 the Division was reorganized, the Clinic Services Branch became obsolete.
