1 <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br /> ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT <br /> Meeting Date: June 1, 2023 <br /> Action Agenda <br /> Item No. 4 <br /> SUBJECT: Discussion on Possible Merging of Adult Care Home Community Advisory <br /> Committee and Nursing Home Community Advisory Committee <br /> DEPARTMENT: Board of Commissioners <br /> ATTACHMENT(S): INFORMATION CONTACT: <br /> Membership Rosters for Adult Care and Clerk's Office, 919-245-2125 <br /> Nursing Home Community Advisory <br /> Committees <br /> PURPOSE: To discuss the possibility of merging the Adult Care Home Community Advisory <br /> Committee (ACHCAC) and Nursing Home Community Advisory Committee (NHCAC) into one <br /> committee. <br /> BACKGROUND: Over the past few years, it has become increasingly more difficult to recruit and <br /> train qualified applicants for both the ACHCAC and NHCAC. During the pandemic, both <br /> committees became inactive given the tight restrictions on entering facilities, and the required <br /> training provided by the State was paused and has not resumed to date. This reality has impacted <br /> attracting and training new potential volunteers/appointees. <br /> It should be noted that both Committees continue to be led by very active Committee Chairs, <br /> Shade Little for ACHCAC and Vibeke Talley for NHCAC, who along with their fellow members <br /> have invested significant time and resources to serve the needs of the public. <br /> COMMITTEE OVERVIEWS <br /> Adult Care Home Community Advisory Committee <br /> Members are appointed by the Board of Commissioners to all positions. Autumn Cox is the <br /> Regional Ombudsman assigned to Orange County through the Triangle J Council of Governments <br /> (TJCOG). Prior to any appointment, Autumn Cox vets applicants. If a qualified applicant is <br /> selected, that individual must attend State mandated training and must pass the course before <br /> being recommended for appointment. There is an initial one-year training term, with subsequent <br /> eligibility for three additional two-year terms. The Committee works to maintain the intent of the <br /> Adult Care Home Residents' Bill of Rights for those residing in licensed adult care homes. The <br /> members of this Committee also promote community involvement and cooperation with these <br /> homes to ensure quality care for the elderly and disabled adults. The members of the Committee <br /> make visits to facilities at least once per year. <br />
