Nursing Skin Assessment
- 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.
Recap/Next Steps Nursing Workflow
- 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.
