Our PHAB Accreditation Specialist will visit the health department on 4/28. Her latest update is that she is finishing things up, creating narratives for the Community Health Assessment (CHA) addendum, and says she will compare her work with what we initially submitted for accreditation, and that when she is here, she will help us find what we need and then start submitting more of the finalized documents.
Jason has a new MPH intern named Vonia Thomas, which started on 4/21/2023. The first task is for her to help us gather our records which are eligible for disposal, per our records retention schedule. The City of Galion will have a shred day later this summer, and Vonia will help us clear out our records which we no longer need to keep. Once this is compiled, Jason will contact our local records commission with the completed Certificate of Records Disposal.
Discussion of Strategic Plan. Since the previous meeting, the Vision Statement has been updated, and the Ten Essential Public Health Services have been replaced by the Foundational Public Health Services. When our PHAB Specialist visits on Friday, we will update the goals, in conjunction with the Performance Management requirements for accreditation.
