Discussion regarding adopting work related to the Nursing Skin Assessment project prior to formal proposal period
Decision - IHE PCC will support the work of the Nursing Skin Assessment project at least through the formal proposal period in the fall. The team will be working towards submitting a proposal, addressing the questions that are answered in healthcare related to their work, the "harmonization" of work between the US agencies such as S&I Framework, HL7, NQF Quality e-measures, etc.

Discussion re: Nursing Sub-Committtee work. Would like to see more technical support to the nursing sub-committee. Not sure if we have enough technical folks to support the team.
Like having someone carry the focus of the nursing interests.
have realized that we used to have just one call for all the projects. Would like to continue having the project specific calls but also re-instantiate the full team "group" calls every 2-4 weeks to share progress and get interdisciplinary input on all projects.
Maintain the co-chair concept for nursing. Have one co-chair be a nurse, the other co-chair to be a "techy". This would allow for the visibiity of nursing to be maintained but perhaps help the projects be more obtainable and have better uptake by the vendor community.
Proposal - submit nominations for new leadership to replace Audrey and Marcia who are leaving. Then have that new leadership work with the PCC Domain Co-Chairs to review and update the charter.

Nursing Workflow Update
- a few things were added to the spreadsheet, reviewed as a team. Guidance provided to clarify the definition of source and discussed the different levels of "source" (EHR, lab system etc)
