AGENDA ITEMS:
please use this format: "#. title - short description [name]"
I will probably be making the following motion: "That all QM minutes are not considered approved/final, until the minutes as taken at the meetings can be disseminated to the group, so the group can have time to review them for accuracy or corrections and have an opportunity to respond." As it stands now, any decisions made at a QM business meeting are considered the policy of the GMHC, as per the exact wording of what the note taker has written in the minutes of that meeting. Because of the volume of conversations and comments which take place at a QM, it is impossible for the minute taker to take 100% thorough/accurate notes. Hence, I think the GMHC should do as many other organizations do and not consider the minutes of their QM meetings to be final until the members can review them for accuracy and have an opportunity to make comments/corrections prior to them being considered as final/accurate.

Shift Coordinator: We are at the point again where we should discuss shift coordinating and who is eligible to do so (Eric)
Formulation of codes of conduct as discussed at previous QM & communication between members (Malaya/Evan)
Clarification of QA protocols (Steven)
Azithromycin - Propose officially approving the MC recommendation for azithromycin treatment with respect to cardiac risk factors. (Steven)
6. Meeting frequency - Move to monthly business meetings with quarterly social-heavy meeting (Evan H.)
7. New-Volunteer "Sign-In" (Jason) - We do not take down any information from our new volunteers. Also, it is difficult to track when a volunteer has been in 3 times so they can be added to the site. This would be a sheet that new volunteers would fill out their first time here, new volunteers would have to initial something saying that they were told about HIPPA and each subsequent shift they attend, they would date an initial. These would be kept in a binder in the ER and coordinators would use it to add new volunteers to the group.
8. Wednesday Steamworks shift (Eric) - Discussion of how Steamworks on Wednesday is going and if we would like to go during the week on Wednesdays
8A. Wednesday shifts (Eric) - If Wednesday shifts prior to discussion of QM should count towards medic quarterly compliance
9. Absentee Voting - I'd like to propose that for significant decisions being made (kicking members out, major change in standard procedure, elections, etc.), we have some process whereby we allow a small period of time for absent members to register a vote and/or opinion before the motion is passed and enacted. These absentee votes would be collected by the members who proposed and seconded the motion, and would report back to the rest of the collective through email the results of the final tally, and any dissenting opinions made. (Malaya)
10. Medics out of compliance for 2 or more quarter present there plan to stay in compliance. (Dave)
