There have been some concerns that have arose. Guidelines, purpose, how often to meet, when do we meet? Do we have enough representatives on the committee? Mark will represent the physicians for both oncology/hematology/palliative care. Wednesdays are not particularly good for MaryAnne. Tuesday/Thursday better and in the morning. Should there be a nurse from both 4E2/4E3. The one from the ward may not be consistent? Nurses could submit concerns to Eileen for Eileen to bring forward. The ward concerns could be done the same only submitted to Dawn. The nurses will be invited to join committee. The initial members were suggested by Dr. Grundy.

4.2 Distinguish what are clinical/admin concerns Goal: concerns very specific. Patient treatment oriented standards of care, protocol in place. Patient interventions. When to start/stop Septra, who gets Septra. What patients from hematology will take priority for bed placement? Just an example of Hematology concerns. Will meet again just to tighten up mission and direction before sending out email to program to state that we exists. Criteria to determine whether concern is for this committee or another area. Being able to disseminate information. Posting information in a Standards binder. Guidelines. State who is represented on the committee. We would recommend standards and standards implement them. 4.3 5. 5.1 6. 7. Date of Next Meeting: Adjournment Additional Items
