The retreat was called to order at 1:10 PM by our retreat facilitator, Jonathan Gerstner.
The draft objectives were presented for each committee followed by discussion to refine these objectives, make them measurable, and offer ideas of how to achieve these objectives. The revised committee goals and OSHP goals are stated below.
Overarching measurable goals for OSHP Board of Directors
1. Establish a collaborative practice agreement between pharmacists and physicians practicing in Oklahoma.
2. To increase membership to 400 active and associate members of OSHP.
3. Improve value of membership in OSHP by creating resources to foster professional development in health-system pharmacy.
Revised Committee Goals:
Programming Committee
1. Diversify programming to target technicians, students, residents, and hospital administrators by planning one trial break-out session at an upcoming event.
2. Deliver program content using varied & interactive presentation methods.
3. Incorporate the ASHP 2015 initiatives into programming.
4. Conduct one trial program with a presentation by a nationally recognized leader followed by a panel of Oklahoma practitioners discussing how these insights are being implemented in their practice contexts.
Membership Committee
1. Conduct one membership drive during Pharmacy Week targeting area directors of pharmacy.
2. Membership Committee will present to Board a proposal for group membership for an individual hospital or organization.
3. Board will work to develop talking points about the key resources which are offered exclusively to OSHP members and continue to develop new ones.
4. Membership committee, board members, and other interested members will travel to health-system pharmacies statewide to educate interested parties regarding the value of membership and participation in OSHP during membership drive.
Newsletter Committee
1. To have at least one contribution to the newsletter from each Board member and committee yearly.
2. To have the Technician of the Year join the committee the following year, and arrange for content which will have value for the education of technicians.
3. Board will contact other ASHP affiliates to consider policies and pricing for advertising.
4. Spotlight ASHP 2015 Initiatives (especially patient and medication safety) in newsletter.
5. Review options for software used to design and print the newsletter; report to Board as to which option is most cost-effective and appropriate.
6. Note that OSHP newsletter content can be derived from ASHP content with proper attribution.
Finance Committee
1. Meet in late-2007 to plan a budget for the 2008 year and seek Board approval
2. Reevaluate appropriateness of funds allocated within the OSHP Bylaws, Policies, and Guidelines (i.e., for scholarships and meeting reimbursements), and make recommendations for any changes to the Board.
3. Develop a budget template based on fund obligations as specified within the OSHP Bylaws, Policies, and Guidelines (i.e. finances for scholarships, student societies, delegate travel, etc.).
4. Reevaluate current long-term investments (CDs) for potential consolidation and optimization opportunities. Present a proposal to the Board about possible consolidation.
Scholarship & Awards Committee
1. Committee will examine the whole process of criteria and selection of scholarships to see if more interest in and prestige for the scholarship can be achieved. The committee will present their recommendation to the Board for approval.
2. Set up a silent auction, raffle, wine and cheese tasting, or similar event at both the Fall and Annual meetings in order to raise additional funds, and put this money in a separate account for the scholarships.
3. Board will evaluate the proposal to raise the scholarship to $750 for the two recipients for the next few years until we are able to fund larger scholarship awards.
Legislation Committee
1. Establish a collaborative practice agreement between pharmacists and physicians practicing in Oklahoma.
Corollary goal 1a: To present a quality presentation on the need for collaborative practice to the Oklahoma Board of Pharmacy in the coming year.
2. Present one informational piece or presentation on the patient care role of pharmacists, especially in the hospital/health-system context.
3. Make at least one presentation at a public hearing on a patient safety discussion.
4. Produce one resource related to the Medication Therapy Management role provided by pharmacists.
Nominations Committee
1. Have a minimum of two qualified nominees for each major OSHP leadership position.

General agreement occurred that each committee would be accountable to the Board and each other to complete these objectives and tasks. With no further business, the retreat was adjourned at 5:00 PM.
Respectfully submitted,
Scott Schaeffer, OSHP Secretary
