REX R. POTTER  
Certified Public Accountant I  *·.
Lexington, Ky.  
To the Oflicers and Trustees
Frontier Nursing Service, Incorporated
Lexington, Kentucky
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have examined the balance sheet of the Frontier Nurs-
ing Service, Incorporated, as of April 30, 1963, and the statement
of revenue and expense for the fiscal year then ended. Our
examination was made in accordance with generally accepted , 
auditing standards, and accordingly included such tests of the ‘
accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we  
considered necessary in the circumstances. Q T
In our opinion, the accompanying balance sheet and state- i
ment of revenue and expense present fairly the financial position 2
of the Frontier Nursing Service, Incorporated, at April 30, 1963, I 
and the results of its operations for the fiscal year then ended, l 
and were prepared in conformity with generally accepted  
accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with that of l  ;
the preceding year. }
Respectfully submitted, V

  THIRTY- EIGHTH ANNUAL REPORT
i,  of the
i r ERONTIER NURSING SERVICE, Inc.
" v` for the Fiscal Year
May 1, 1962 to April 30, 1963
PREFACE
As has been our custom since we were one year old, we
present our annual report of the fiscal affairs and of the field of
operations of the Frontier Nursing Service to its trustees, mem-
bers, and subscribers.
  We have, as in previous years, divided our report into two
{ sections. One section is about money, and one section about
  work.
    Under the heading of Conclusion, we tell something of what
 I the year has meant to us.
I.
{  FISCAL REPORT
§  Our annual audit is so detailed, and therefore so voluminous,
l  1 that we do not print it in full. The figures that follow are taken
p from the Exhibits and Schedules of the last audit. We have
’ divided these figures into four categories. The auditor’s own
Balance Sheet is the first category. The second is his list of
,1 Endowments and Reserves. The third category covers all
.`°. Revenue Receipts. The fourth category we have put into two
I  columns—to the left the Expenditures of the last fiscal year
 l taken from the audit, and to the right the Budget accepted by
 E our trustees for the current fiscal year, based on last year’s
_  Q expenditures.
  Under a fifth category, called Inventory, we account for all
I l our properties. All five categories are given in sequence on the
} following pages.

Q MEDICAL AND SURGICAL
  Dr. Francis Brewer, who came to us in August of 1961,
i filled the post of Medical Director all of the fiscal year. This fine
,§ physician and deeply kind man has left us before this report was
‘ written, following the completion of two years service, and he
and Mrs. Brewer, whom we all liked so very much, have both
1. retired to their home in Hartford, Connecticut.
‘ Although it has no bearing on the fiscal year that closed
· April 30, 1963, we do want to add that our own Dr. Beasley will
1 be returning to us before the first of October. We also want to
l say that we are fortunate to have with us Dr. John E. Sinning
for the months of August and September.
{ We extend our warm thanks to the Kentucky Commission
‘ for Handicapped Children for free care given the patients we
  refer to them. Our thanks go too, as they do each year, to Dr.
l H. G. Reineke of Cincinnati who reads Frontier Nursing Service
x-rays for us as a courtesy. We continue to be grateful in the
I fullest measure to the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital for the free
Q care to our children referred to them by our Medical Director.
.p We add further gratitude to this splendid institution for the fine
Q pediatric clinics given during the past year. In May, 1962, we
2 were so fortunate as to have again with us Dr. J. B. Holloway of
Lexington and his fine team to conduct a surgical clinic. These
. clinics are an old tradition in the FNS. The first ones were given
us by the late Dr. Scott Breckinridge. Dr. Francis Massie fol-
 _1 lowed him. With him in late years came Dr. J. B. Holloway who
1 now carries on this tradition. We are also most appreciative to
Dr. Doane Fisher and to Dr. Carl Yaple of the Harlan Memorial
 . Hospital, for pediatric help and advice, including clinics held by
’ Dr. Yaple at Hyden Hospital. Dr. David B. Stevens of Lexington,
