An HP nurse at work
Those ubiquitous hams

URSE MARY DESMO DIS CONVI CED that people
N don't live safe and healthy lives by mere accident. "It
requires an effort on the part of each person. But this
is old hat," she says. "The real danger in a company like ours
is that we're not involved in hazardous occupations and there-
fore we're not always conscious of safety. You don't have to
tell a coal miner to wear a hard hat, but we sometimes have to
remind ourselves to put on safety glasses in production
areas."
o Miss Desmond is one of more than a dozen registered
nurses employed by Hewlett-Packard at locations around the
world. Her work at the Sanborn Division in Waltham, Mass.,
is identical in purpose, if not in detail, to the work of all the
others.
A typical day sees her serving her 980 charges in a variety
of ways. She may treat a cold or bandage a finger one minute,
bring an employee's health record up to date the next, then
take a quick run through the plant to inspect for potentially
dangerous conditions. All the while she is available for pro-
fessional, sympathetic consultation (she knows all the people
in the plant by their first names). And at regular intervals
she meets with the Sanborn safety committee for discussions
and reports.
o Even during time off she shows concern for the health and
happiness of Sanborn people. She has taken many courses
related to nursing and has served as a director of the Boston
Industrial urse Group. Additionally she helps many com-
munity health agencies which are available to serve em-
ployees with non-occupational as well as occupational prob-
lems.
Being a nurse was a lifelong ambition for Miss Desmond.
She was graduated from the nursing school at Carney Hos-
pital in Boston and served as a private nurse for a time while
taking further courses at Boston College. In 1941 she became ECG tests help head off potential heart conditions among employees.

mons College. After five years with a large manufacturer of
industrial valves she joined Sanborn in 1947.
Sanborn's steady growth through the years holds but one
regret for her. "I have fond memories of my early days here
when there were only about 300 people and if any of them
got sick I could visit them at the hospital or in their home."
o Now, Miss Desmond is assisted in her busy schedule by
Evelyn Downing, a registered nurse who works part time for
Sanborn and also donates her services to a National Public
Health Study at Sudbury, Mass.
Each month the two nurses prepare a clinic activity report
which, among other things, provides a statistical picture of
health and safety at Sanborn. In one recent average month
there were nearly 1500 visits to the clinic. This may seem an
astounding number in view of the division's total employ-
ment, but a relatively few people requiring repeated treat-
ments accounted for the largest portion of these visits.
o Of the people who checked into the clinic, 25 were sent
home with such things as runny noses and sore throats, 15
were given routine electrocardiogram tests, and 47 received
shots for tetanus. The nurses treated 122 first aid cases but
only one was serious enough to cause lost time. This kind of
lost time record, according to Nurse Desmond, is the result
of the "ounce of prevention approach" to plant safety.
"Safety is a very personal matter," she points out. "It
seems strange, but you have to appeal to people to protect
themselves by following safe practices. Then you have to
remind them-sometimes over and over-until it becomes a
way of life." <1
Miss Desmond chats with Dick Nolan during safety
inspection of plant.
"Industrial nurses do a lot of record keeping.
I'm glad I took typing in high schoo!'''
says Miss Desmond.

I N ORDER TO MAINTAIN a satisfactory growth rate for our com-
pany, we have to continually add to, upgrade and strengthen our total
capability. This requires a considerable amount of long-range planning,
plus a substantial investment in people, plant and equipment.
o Our ultimate success depends on the steady flow of new and improved
products from our various laboratories, so we must recruit the best technical
talent we can find. Moreover, we have to seek out people with good leader-
ship potential to be able to fill future management slots in a growing con-
cern.
We're happy to report that our recruiting activities have been especially
successful this year. We've expanded our engineering and scientific staffs
by nearly 15%, which is just about the rate we expect our business to grow
each year. We've been able to hire a number of top graduates from 39
colleges and universities.
o On the plant and equipment side of the picture, we've been particularly
busy. Here in Palo Alto we have a major new building program under way,
and in addition are investing about $2,000,000 in new machinery and equip-
ment.
We're adding over $50,000 worth of automatic and semi-automatic con-
veyor equipment in our materials handling areas. This will provide faster,
more efficient handling of parts and instruments.
The Frequency and Time Division is setting up a prototype manufactur-
ing facility for integrated circuits. This involves fairly expensive equipment,
including furnaces, vacuum evaporators and a precision camera. In another
part of its operations, F&T is adding an Edlund numeric drill to provide
high speed, highly accurate drilling of plated circuit boards. The price tag
Noel E. Porter, Vice President, Operations on this new machine is about $50,000.
o In the tool and die area we're adding electrical discharge equipment to
facilitate the production of highly complex dies. The production machine
shop will soon have another B&S screw machine and a large die casting
machine, the latter costing about $47,000. We're also expanding our metal
etch facility, and building a special automatic buffing machine for the die
cast shop.
Looking at some of our other facilities around the circuit, we've recently
announced plans for a large addition to our plant in Loveland, Colorado,
and the Colorado Springs Division is making some minor alterations to its
plant to accommodate an expanded engineering and engineering support
AROUND THE CIRCUIT activity.
Some new muscles for increasing our capability
In Massachusetts the Sanborn people are working on a more efficient
manufacturing layout, and are renovating a large part of their plant. The
renovation includes painting and re-lighting production areas, and improv-
ing the plant's air conditioning system.
In Europe the construction contract has been let for our new facility in
Scotland. This will be a 'most impressive plant, and will provide much-
needed additional space for HP Ltd.'s growing operations.
o All of this expansion and upgrading of plant and equipment doesn't just
happen. It's the result of many people spending many hours in studying
our market forecasts, analyzing manpower needs, reviewing cost and other
financial data, and in general doing a painstaking, comprehensive job of
long-range planning. And of course it requires a continuing generation of
profits to provide enough money to pay all the bills. Without profit there
are no new plants, no new machines-in short, no growth.
Each of our divisions participates in our corporate long-range planning,
and in strengthening our total capability. This is the key to maintaining our
leadership in this fast-growing field of scientific instrumentation.
