Polk Street, in the Second Floor Conference Room, Chicago, Illinois. I. Attendance/Call to Order Chairman Gugenheim called the meeting to order. Present: Chairman Ada Mary Gugenheim and Directors Mary Driscoll, RN, MPH and Layla P. Suleiman Gonzalez, PhD, JD (3) Board Chairman M. Hill Hammock (ex officio) and Directors Emilie N. Junge and Mary B. Richardson-Lowry Patrick T. Driscoll, Jr. and Patricia Merryweather (non-director Members) Absent: None (0) Additional attendees and/or presenters were: Krishna Das, MD Chief Quality Officer Claudia Fegan, MD Chief Medical Officer Trevor Lewis, MD John H. Stroger, Jr. Hospital of Cook County Jeff McCutchan Interim General Counsel Annmarie McDonagh Director of Emergency and Trauma Services Deborah Santana Secretary to the Board John Jay Shannon, MD Chief Executive Officer Agnes Therady Chief Nursing Officer Arnold Turner, MD Provident Hospital of Cook County Sharon Welbel, MD System Director of Infection Control II. Public Speakers Chairman Gugenheim asked the Secretary to call upon the registered public speakers. The Secretary responded that there were none present. III. Report from Chief Quality Officer A. Regulatory and Accreditation Updates B. Metrics (Attachment #1) C. Report on Infection Control (Attachment #2) D. Report on Nursing (Attachment #3) Dr. Krishna Das, Chief Quality Officer, provided updates on regulatory and accreditation matters. Provident Hospital underwent its triennial survey last week by The Joint Commission (TJC). The surveyors were there for three (3) days; they surveyed the hospital, as well as the clinic for Primary Care Medical Home compliance. There were no findings in the PCMH area, so now all clinics within the System are certified for PCMH. There were some findings in the hospital; almost all of the findings were what is considered limited by TJC, and are therefore easily remediable. Staff are making the corrective actions. Additionally, staff are actively working on accreditation-related activities at Stroger Hospital, as it is also in the window for a visit from TJC. Page 1 of 73

30 Risk Assessment Geographic Location and Community Environment John H. Stroger Jr. Hospital of Cook County (JSHCC) cares for all patients of all ages primarily from the Metropolitan Chicago as well as the surrounding suburbs of Cook County and Cook County Jail. The threat of mass casualty, terrorism in all its forms, and other human events are taken into consideration. Characteristics of the Population Served JSHCC serves a diverse community, largely uninsured. A high percentage of the population includes African Americans and Hispanics, as well as foreign born. Sub populations within these groups are trauma (Level 1) and burn patients, high risk neonates (Level 3), those with TB and HIV, and incarcerated persons. Results of Analysis of JSHCC Infection, Prevention and Control Data Data analyzed include daily microbiological (culture) results, Surgical Site Infection (SSI) rates, device related infection rates, communicable disease exposure events and environmental incidents. These data are analyzed and reviewed for variances regularly (daily for microbiology data and monthly for others). Care, Treatment and Services Provided JSHCC has 533 beds. (254 Med/Surg/Burn Step Down, 76 ICU, 52 Neonatal ICU, 28 Pediatrics, 10 PICU, 26 Nursery, 37 OB/Gyne/LDR, 14 Flex Unit, and 36 ED/Trauma Obs.). The high volume and/or high-risk services are assessed for surveillance and adaptable measures that can be followed. Employee Health JSHCC provides a safe working environment for employees through the collaboration of Infection Control and Employee Health to identify potentially infectious conditions that may pose a risk for patients, visitors and staff. Emergency Preparedness JSHCC works continuously to be ready for an internal or external emergency, including but not limited to a short or long term influx of infectious patients. 16 Page 30 of 73

Risk for transmission of Multi-drug Resistant Organisms (MDRO), (Risk Score=7) Emergence of CRE cases admitted from long term care facilities. Increase in SIR of health care onset Clostridium difficile Need for patient, family, staff education on MDRO. 17 Page 31 of 73

Risk for Catheter Associated Urinary Tract Infection (CAUTI), (Risk Score=7) Poor compliance with urinary catheter care and maintenance. All-in-one urinary catheter set not available Poor compliance with CHG bath. Inconsistent documentation of catheter assessment, insertion, care, and maintenance. 7. Risk for transmission of blood borne/bacterial infections related to misuse of medication vials, (Risk Score=7) Inappropriate labeling and use of medication vials. Misuse of single-dose/single-use and multiple-dose vials 18 Page 32 of 73

Catheter-associated Urinary Tract Infection (CAUTI): A urinary tract infection where an indwelling urinary catheter was in place for >2 calendar days on the date of event. Central line-associated Blood Stream Infections (CLABSI) : A laboratory-confirmed bloodstream infection where central line (CL) or umbilical catheter (UC) was in place for >2 calendar days on the date of event. Deep Incisional Primary (DIP): A deep incisional surgical site infection that is identified in a primary incision in a patient that has had an operation with one or more incisions (e.g., C-section incision or chest incision for CBGB). Healthcare-Associated Infections(HAI): An infection patients can get while receiving medical treatment in a healthcare facility. Healthcare Facility-Onset (HO): A laboratory specimen collected >3 days after admission to the facility (i.e., on or after day 4). Standardized Infection Ratio (SIR): A summary measure which compares the actual number of Healthcare Associated Infections (HAI) in a facility with the baseline data for standard population. SIR >1.0 indicates more HAIs were observed than predicted, conversely, SIR of <1.0 indicates that fewer HAIs were observed than predicted.

45 Rounding on Patients: Patient Comments COMMENT THEME Staff Attitude Call Light Response Cleanliness Communication EXAMPLES It is not all of the nurse. the majority of the nurses are good but some of them need to change their attitude. The day shift is really nice but I felt the nice shift nurse felt bothered. She was gracious but ned [sic] to smile. The nurse need to come when I need help. I tried to reach my call light and couldn t, my room mate had to call the nurse. Answer my call light sooner. Just one nurse acted like she did not want to answer my call light. Took 20 mins It should be cleaner for a hospital. "The Nurses are great but housekeeping is sorely lacking." Improve communicate[sic] among themselves so that when a nurse is relieving another nurse they know what's going[sic] Better bedside manner by some nursing staff. Not all. Some are very good. Food Interpreters Pain Management The food is not enough and does not taste good. Need to choice on what type of food to be served. The food can be better and trays too late. Be patient because of the language barrier. Nurses use interpreter phone sometime but it best to have an in person interpreter. "I am in pain, I have surgery on my right thigh. Tell them to give me my pain medications Anticipate my need. When sick can't help self. Pain medication on time. Staff sometimes slow. Next time the doctors say that they are going to write something for pain, they need to do it. Before leaving the floor because it is hard for the nurses to get them once they leave.
