August 21st is the day that PHAB will have its accreditation committee meeting to decide if we will become a nationally-accredited health department. We should be informed of their decision within one to two weeks after this meeting. When we applied for accreditation the first time, we successfully passed 82 of 100 PHAB measures. We were asked to improve upon the remaining eighteen measures and then try again for accreditation in a year. We recently received the results of those eighteen measures of the accreditation paperwork we resubmitted. We learned that ten of those measures passed as being 'largely demonstrated'. Seven of those measures are considered 'slightly demonstrated', while one of those is 'not demonstrated'. With those results in mind, the accreditation committee will review our progress and determine if we should be accredited. The measures which we felt were most important to get right were thankfully among those that passed when we submitted our paperwork for the second time.
We just had our brand-new tires put on the city car. The manufacturer gave us a 50% discount on the new tires because of the defective tires we had.
