9-21-11 Agenda

Please print your own copy of the agenda and review the "attachments" to assist in cross-infection control! 


Anyone calling in needs to do so AHEAD of time. We've asked that call-in or WebEx members get set up 10 minutes before the scheduled meeting time. 

Advisory Council visitors are welcome; however, attendees must respect the CF Center at Stanford cross infection guidelines. Please do not attend in person if you have an active viral infection or any other contagious condition. If you have CF, keep three feet between yourself and others who have CF. Avoid shaking hands with others. Additionally, individuals with CF who have ever had a confirmed positive sputum culture for Burkholderia cepacia (B. cepacia) or who have cultured Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) within the past two years, or who are currently culturing a bacterium resistant to all antibiotics (pan resistant) may not attend our sessions in person due to the cross-infection risks to others with CF. Please see the "To attend this meeting via WebEx" section at the bottom of this agenda if you wish to attend this month's meeting via WebEx.

  5. Quarterly feedback meeting summary:
    We scheduled our next ACFAC feedback meeting for: Friday, December 9th
    ** How do we want to gather feedback for this December feedback meeting? 
    Summary of meeting:
    1. There were no revisions suggested to the "Get to Know the Stanford Adult CF Team" questionnaire (https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B7WrtjnOi5wMOGUyOWRkMTMtNTFjZS00ZDZjLWJiZTUtYjE4NjNlYTQ5NWU0&hl=en_US). It is being distributed to the whole CF team (docs, coordinators, NPs, dietician, etc.) in September with a deadline of October 10th.
    2. Dr. Sista is no longer with the Stanford CF team. The 3 remaining CF doctors will spend more time at clinic (clinic coverage time will not decline). Also, Dr. Mohabir and Dr. Weill still have room to add more one-on-one CF patients. If patients are interested, contact Kathy.
    3. The CF center's clinic feedback form is estimated to "launch" November 1st. Dr. Mohabir plans to show the advisory council a draft with the questions before then.
    4. Jay and I passed on that we are hearing more and more patients and family express relief that the "growing pains" are subsiding, and generally feeling more positive about the Adult CF Center at Stanford.
