The minutes of the May 29, 2008, Board Meeting were previously approved by email vote.

The expectations and goals for the day were discussed, namely developing a vision for the 2008-09 year. To help the board members and committee chairs learn more about each other, a short game titled "Stand Up" was played and enjoyed by all.

OSHP Mission and Goals (Link)

It was discussed how the OSHP goals and mission are quite lengthy, and in the future, the Board may consider condensing them.

Evaluation/Revision of BOD Strategic Plan

The Board decided to keep the same three overarching measurable goals from last year as a priority for this year:

Establish a collaborative practice agreement between pharmacists and physicians practicing in Oklahoma.

OSHP will continue its partnership with OPhA and the CMTM Committee. After the language for the collaborative practice agreement is solidified, hopefully a draft can be presented to the OSHP membership.

To increase membership to 400 active and associate members of OSHP.

There are currently 369 total OSHP members. A decrease in the Eastern District numbers was noted. To help increase members, it was suggested that meeting announcements be sent to pharmacy directors and possibly have some board members visit hospitals in Tulsa. Additionally, ways to retain current members were discussed. It was also suggested to cross reference the OSHP membership list with the ASHP list to find new members and to print a list of member non-renewals and approach them about rejoining.

Improve value of membership in OSHP by creating resources to foster professional development in health-system pharmacy.

It was decided to continue the monthly member e-updates. A suggestion was made to check on the feasibility of having district meetings taped and put on the OSHP website for rural members to view for CE credit.

The OSHP website was also discussed, and a suggestion to create a Communications Committee was made. This new committee would work closely with the Newsletter Committee.

Motion: OSHP will create a new Communications Committee.
Discussion: It was discussed that in the future this committee might be combined with the Newsletter Committee and that newsletter articles could be hyperlinked to the website. It was suggested that Ben Welch chair this new committee.
Status: Passed. (No change in the OSHP Bylaws would be needed with the formation of this committee.)

Evaluation/Revision of Committee Goals

Goals from last year were presented for each committee. A discussion followed to continue, change, or delete those goals for the 2008-09 year. The revised committee goals are attached in a separate document.

OSHP Task Force on National Patient Safety Goals

It was discussed that OSHP should hold a workshop in August regarding National Patient Safety Goal 3E, which involves anticoagulation management. This would allow organizations to share their ideas about how they are addressing these new standards. It was discussed that a maximum of two pharmacists per organization could attend. An afternoon meeting would allow pharmacists from Tulsa to attend. The meeting format would involve small group discussions and information sharing sessions. This workshop would be free for OSHP members and a charge of $75 for non-members.
