they actually came in and did an on site review at sfgh. then mayor lee thought it was important to have an external review and asked the university of california of san francisco medical center to come in and do a review of security systems at the hospital. and then finally director garcia had her staff, and i was a part of that, develop a corrective action plan that we delivered to the sheriff and he graciously accepted and has been a partner as we've gone through trying to put together that action plan. the summary i'm going to share with you is a couple four mayor areas. those are leadership, patient safety, contractor services and facility improvements. you can follow -- you'll see the legend actually at the top. it shows the organization that made the finding and/or recommendation and so those are cms for the medicaid federal survey, ucsf from the medical centers review and those items in the corrective action plan, the cap for the sheriff's department. in terms of leadership, the general theme was insufficient oversight of a contract

and i took a captain and literally grounded the captain there at sfgh. there had never been a captain there before because i wanted boots on the ground and somebody that i had qualified to be my go to person on the ground to literally shake it up and help us almost restart what we needed to do maybe many years earlier than that. born out of that process and then the communicative process, which frankly i don't think existed or well existed in the past. second motion strings of communication, which i don't believe is just ad hoc because of a tragedy, but now become more of a permanent establishment of how two departments should work together and a captain that's not reporting to a chief deputy, but now who are erased all sort of chain where he reports directly to me so we have the ability to make swift and deliberate decisions which we have. so i want to share what some of those are that i think help result since 2002, 2003 when it happened, has there been any kind of infusion like that, so what that gives us is to inject in depths at a level we've never
