one. so, it also, i think will help the staff know who they are working with in terms of the chairs and all. and i want to thank everybody for the input that they have had and we are working to see how our committee structure we will be able to accommodate additional commissionerers that may wish to sit in on certain topics and weigh in on those and that is also part of our attempt here at the same time to see if then, some of the commissioners desires to understand certain other areas, and being limited by our committee structure would be able to actually participate in topics that they would like in the committee. so we are working on that to see if that can come out and be able to be added on to our agenda, and we will have our assignments finished by and published by our next meeting. >> and is there any other items of business that the commissioners would like to bring before us? is there any public comment that we just.
10:31 am
>> i received no public comment on this item. >> and any other items from the commissioners, if not, then, we will go on to the next item. item 9, is the joined conference committee report back and honda and did meet in between the last commission meeting and today, and so commissioner sanchez. we have a report from commissioner sanchez? >> yes. we had a full committee and we heard an excellent report from the hospital staff and also the unique acknowledgments given to the staff ranging from the state wide to the fiscal outstanding excellence, and the city wide awards and etc.. and there was also a full report and the balance and showing it for the past few months and began well defined. and i think that one of the major reports that we heard and
10:32 am
we heard and the nutritional services and also the wellness update showing why the participation and our patients and our staff and our communities and the accessibility from the community to and the community itself. and we would serve 700 meals plus 300 and 1,000 meals a day, at laguna honda and the quality of the service and i requested an updated daily or not annually but not monthly or daily but to listen to the personnel who are involved in this process it was really remarkable and commending to see the dedication and the commitment that they had to
10:33 am
providing these excellent nutritional programs and specialized diets for our patients and these are continually monitored and updated sxets. and in closing, we also approved the comprehensive wide policy and procedures update which has been ongoing, and had a closed session in which we followed the procedures and running the medical staffing, and we adjourned and we had a very excellent meeting. and any additional comments from the colleagues. >> commissioners any further comment? >> any public comment on the... >> i have received no public comment for this item. >> other commissioners have no further questions? for our members at laguna good. we will go to the next item. >> 10 is committee agenda settings. >> and okay, so, commissioners in understanding of the last
10:34 am
planning meeting and what we will be trying to plan for a community meeting and we will be trying to select a... >> the planning. >> well, we are going to do both, you are right. and we have asked for your input on dates for the planning meeting, thank you. and also, we spoke about trying to have a community meeting and we are seeking out sights and a thought at the moment that we have not gone to the mission in the cycles that we have had for quite some time and with the change in the whole dem graphics and if the entire area and i think that it would be good for our commission to understand that and how we need to meet the needs of that population and so i have asked the director garcia to look into seeing how we can do a community meeting there this was you may remember part of the thoughts that came out of the planning meeting last year to try to see if we could then have more community input. and we will see how that works.
10:35 am
and an opportunity to interact with our community at the meeting. so, that will also be in the planning >> yes, commissioner melara? >> i also want to remind us that we have postponed the joint commission meeting with the department or with the commission on the side of the women and i am not even seeing it on the calendar any more. so, we need to move on that. >> i am waiting actually to hear back from them on dates, commissioners so even though it is not on here, it is on my list to make sure that it is on the calendar. >> good. >> we are also looking to see that as commissioner chung noted today, that as we move from our committees, and which are doing just some excellent amount of work in terms of looking at the issues being brought there in depth that we are reminding ourselves what should then come before the
10:36 am
full commission and also, have those presentations enhanced with the other partners and may be actually involved so that the wider discussion within the various parts of our city family which i think that we have all been talking about the people that would like to encourage and so, not only will we bring forward a report, but when appropriate, and the commission that you just mentioned is one of those. and although there is no specific item that we have at the moment and but there is, and i think that the long term care report was a good example of how that works, and the director garcia suggested that we can do the same with many of our other activities that also involve other city partners, or even other consorcium and the private sector that will help to enhance the total understanding of the total picture and our own understanding of not just what we were doing is and how this
10:37 am
is being leveraged for additional activities within the city family and the community. >> and but doctor, garcia, did you want to comment further? >> yes, we will be looking at these items and as an example of the pedestrian an safety, the vision zero, where we have a specific roll that we showed that at the committee and then we will show at the full commission, how we interact with other departments. as example of co-chairing some of the committees and we will have the departments representatives here so that you can see the full picture of how it all works and how we are collaborativive with the other departments, and but we play a specific role in that, that is probably going to be played out at the committee level, and then at the commission level, where we will show the whole picture of how it all works together with the other departments. and we will be looking at items like that so that we can build upon the committee work. >> thank you. >> and is there some other
10:38 am
further items that commissioners would like to see on our calendar? >> if not, no. >> you know, through the chair, no. i was just i was going to match the calendar and i was going to see that the doctor is going to present where was the, we do have an updated list of items. >> yes. >> and right. on the back page. >> and on our over all, and i was going to share as i, and i believe that the california rankings of our public health departments is now available through the rwj and the foundation and we had discussed this last year, and doctor and kevin and others were adding some thoughts to it and i thought that it might be a good time to update to see how we are doing it. and also, to take a look at the criteria. and maybe, you know, some of the foundations that need to as various states are going
10:39 am
through challenges, perhaps we need to bring up to the radar the fact that there are some unique challenges and a number of states are facing including ours. and in a particular unique county, such as ours and such as our discussion that we just had pertaining to our proposed center of excellence in what we are doing and there are so many new areas that concern would be part of the parameter, but at the same time, i think that it gives us an opportunity to sort of see, some of the old benchmarks that are being used, to sort of rank public health departments within the state and within the nation. >> and so i think that ties in very well with our community and public health that is monitoring our own efforts in the public health accreditation and i ask that be placed at that committee level first and i believe that certainly is something that the commission would like to hear. >> i also will be setting up on the meetings with the commissioners who are chairing
10:40 am
the committees so that we can go over the calendars and make sure that we are capturing all of the items with commissioner mcghee. >> very good. >> any other items if not, we will move on to the next item. >> which is adjournment. >> yes. >> is there a motion for adjournment? >> so moved. >> is there a second, please? >> second. >> all of those in favor of adjournment, please say aye? >> aye. >> all of those opposed? , therefore this meeting is adjourned. thank you.day. >> thank you for being here today to welcome air lingus to
