![["Ambulance attendants were commended for successfully assisting in a breech birth delivery, saving the baby's life. The mother had initially been misdiagnosed at an Indian hospital and later taken to Hillcrest for treatment. A concerned citizen wrote a letter to Senator Bartlett requesting help for the young couple, as they were facing high hospital bills and had experienced neglect and mistreatment at the Indian hospital. The writer believed that the couple deserved assistance from government agencies due to their circumstances."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_32_8_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Health,%201973%20Feb.%20-%201978%20Sep.,%201973-1978/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_32_8_0010_thumbnail.jpg "Heroic Ambulance Attendants Successfully Assist in Breech Birth")
![["Pamela K. Morales sent a complaint to the United States Senate regarding discrimination her non-Indian husband faced at the Indian Health Service Hospital. The hospital did not provide treatment to her husband, citing his non-Indian status. Morales also raised concerns about other issues at the hospital, such as tardiness of government employees, inadequate nursing staff, and delays in dental appointments. She called for reorganization and reprimands within the hospital staff."]](/thumb/CAC_CC_003_2_32_11_0012.jpg "An Appeal Against Discrimination in Indian Health Service: A Letter to the Senate")
