Those working in health centres appre¬ ciated the advantages of pleasant premises and the presence of a primary health care team. Other doctors believed health centres were dis¬ liked by patients, were bureauc...

A NORM INEQUALITY FOR CHEBYSHEV CENTRES

In this paper, we study the Chebyshev centres of bounded subsets of normed spaces and obtain a norm inequality for relative centres. In particular, we prove that if T is a remotal subset of an inner product space H, and F is a star-shaped set at a relative Chebyshev centre c of T with respect to F, then llx - qT (x)1I2 2 Ilx-cll2 + Ilc-qT (c) 112 x E F, where qT : F + T is any choice functi...

Astute physicians, many of them involved in emergency medicine, saw that a significant percentage of the patient population utilizing hospital-based emergency departments consisted ...
