Mark Lawley, Chair, declared a quorum and called the meeting to order at 12:00 p.m. ATTENDANCE ROSTER NCMC Board of Trustees: Mark Lawley, Michael Simone, Catherine Davis, Kay Kosmicki, Kevin Mullin, Jason Yeater, and Sean Conway (Commissioner, non -voting member), with Brian Underwood being Excused Banner Health: Margo Karsten (NCMC CEO) -Excused, Derek Strader (NCMC COO) Staff: Jeff Carlson (INC. Board Exec. Dir.) Recording Clerk: Esther Gesick (Weld County Clerk to the Board) PUBLIC COMMENT - There was no public comment. APPROVAL OF MINUTES It was MSC (Yeater/Simone) to approve the minutes from the March 25, 2019, Regular Session meeting. NCM CEO/COO REPORT Derek Strader reported working on plans to retain a trained, skilled medic workforce, while recognizing the need to have more staff in training when vacancies arise due to posted positions with other agencies. He noted the Trauma Center worked very closely with the family that was affected by the tragic loss within the Greeley Fire Protection District last week, which is a close-knit community of emergency responders. He stated they are continuing to work to address the needs of the team. Financially, he reported the first quarter ended strong and ahead of budget, which he attributed to increased patient volumes. The M.D. Anderson Center volume is 80 patients ahead of last year, although the McKee facility growth is not as rapid. He stated M.D. Anderson has added a second partner in the State, which is located south of Denver at the Centerra location. Ms. Davis commented she received a personal reference who commended the facility on their high quality of care. In response to Mr. Mullin, Mr. Strader explained the agreement is very limiting as to marketing, therefore, they are restricted to Weld and Larimer Counties, and the eastern plains (Logan, Sterling). He stated M.D. Anderson is more referral based, and he confirmed they are unable to use mass media marketing, nor can they extend into Wyoming.

On Wednesday, the Board passed a Resolution directing the Clerk to publish a Notice scheduling a hearing for June 10, 2019, to consider the Board's Intent to Designate the Unincorporated Areas of Weld County as a Mineral (Oil and Gas) Matter of State Interest. He commented this is a big deal because the State has promoted SB-181 as a means of allowing more local control; therefore, this is a means of establishing a local process and creating more certainty regarding oil and gas production in Weld County. Commissioner Conway also noted the assessed valuation for Weld County makes Weld the second highest valued county, behind Denver County. He commented the tax revenue generated by oil and gas is critical to school districts, fire protection districts, and municipality funding. He stated the Board met with Director Robbins of the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) last week, and currently they do not have new members appointed to the COGCC to deal with the 6,500 pending permits (4,500 of which are from WC). He stated they have been assured that the State will be bringing on more staff; however, Weld County intends to exercise its local authority and begin processing them internally. He stated the Board wants to bring certainty to the industry and the marketplace and alleviate employee concerns. Last week the Board passed a Proclamation expressing its appreciation and support of oil and gas workers. Lastly, he reported the Board will be hosting a Vietnam Veterans Welcome Home Pinning Ceremony at the Fort Lupton Recreation Center, on Saturday, June 8th at 9:00 a.m. In response to Mr. Mullin, he acknowledged the County has been contacted by local municipalities and the Board is exploring options to assist with administrative support or boiler templates for the 1041 designation and oil and gas permitting process. Any ordinance changes will be reviewed by the Planning Commission and open to the public for input during the three -reading process. VISITATION REPORT FOR APRIL 29, 2019 PRIMARY STROKE CENTER AT NCMC, BANNER NOCO: Laurie Hamit, Clinical Resource Leader/NCMC Stroke Coordinator, and Dr. Meredith Frederick, C/P Neuro Clinic, were present and provided an overview of the Primary Stroke Center. Following the meeting, Catherine Davis submitted a summary of the presentation and related discussion, a written copy of which is attached as a part of these minutes. Michael Simone prepared and delivered a note of thanks. VISITATION REPORT FOR MAY 20, 2019 Kevin Mullin and Brian Underwood (rotation switched due to schedule conflicts). NCMC, INC. REPORT Jeff Carlson reported 14 agencies have submitted letters of intent to apply for additional grant dollars to be used for philanthropic efforts and the full applications are due tomorrow. Mr. Strader added the legislative session has also had a significant impact on health care, Page 2 of 3 April 29, 2019 NCMC Board of Trustees specifically, a Bill which aims to increase transparency but hinders the ability for a facility to have privileged discussions. He stated Banner is opposed due to fear of patient safety and has joined with other health systems in the state to bring in a consultant firm and they plan to be more involved at the State capital to educate legislators regarding the unintended impacts resulting from efforts to reduce costs. Commissioner Conway commented the County has a contracted lobbyist and he offered use of those services through communications to see if there is a way to address any local issues or concerns. Mr. Strader agreed that may be useful and stated until every aspect of the medical field is involved, the efforts to reduce costs will not be successful. NEW BUSINESS — None. ADJOURN There being no further business to come before the Board, it was MSC [Simone/Davis] to adjourn the meeting at 1:10 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Esther Gesick Page 3 of 3 April 29, 2019 NCMC Board of Trustees NCMC Trustee Report Primary Stroke Center at NCMC Presenters: Dr. Meredith Frederick (C/P Neuro Clinic) Laurie Hamit (Clinical Resource Leader/NCMC Stroke Coordinator Report: Catherine C. Davis, PhD, MPH May 14, 2019 Stroke is the leading cause of disability in the United States and the fifth leading cause of death. A stroke occurs when a blood vessel is blocked by a clot or ruptures. When that happens, blood flow to the brain is impacted, and brain cells start to die. Every 40 seconds someone in the United States suffers a stroke. North Colorado Medical Center has successfully completed a survey to earn the Primary Stroke Center certification from a national accrediting organization. The Joint Commission's certification means NCMC's stroke response team follows the best methods to care for patients suspected of having a stroke. This allows brain -saving treatments such as tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) to begin more quickly. A hemorrhagic stroke (aka - bleed) occurs if an artery in the brain leaks blood or ruptures. The first steps in treating a hemorrhagic stroke are to find the cause of bleeding in the brain and then control it. Some of the options for treatments include surgical clips or coils inserted in aneurisms, controlling high blood pressure, and surgery to remove the bleeding vessel and blood that has spilled into the brain. There is only one Food & Drug Administration (FDA) approved drug treatment for acute ischemic stroke. tPA is given via intravenous therapy (IV) and works by dissolving the clot and improving blood flow to the part of the brain being deprived of blood flow. tPA should be given within three hours (and up to 4.5 hours in certain eligible patients)of the time symptoms first started. It is important to determine that the stroke is associated with a clot and not a bleed and this is determined with a CAT scan before the drug can be administered. Meredith Frederick, MD, Banner Health neuro-hospitalist at NCMC, said the certification should provide comfort to community members who can be confident that the hospital is providing exceptional care for stroke patients. "We already have been providing excellent care and tracking those outcomes," Dr. Frederick said. "This reassures the community that we will continue to perform at a high level." As mentioned above, treatment for stroke varies depending on whether the blood vessel has been blocked or has ruptured. Patients who have a blocked vessel often might receive a drug to break up the clot and restore flow. If the clot is larger or if a blood vessel has burst, the patient will be flown to another hospital for an endovascular intervention. The decision on treatment must be made quickly and accurately to minimize damage to the brain and improve the patient's chance for the best recovery possible. Dr. Frederick and Jessica Williams, MD, fill the neuro-hospitalist role at NCMC, covering the hospital from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. seven days a week. After hours, the hospital contracts with Blue Sky Neurology to provide care via televideo when needed. This allows rapid access to neurology specialists 24 hours a day. Laurie Hamit, RN and NCMC stroke coordinator, said the certification is for two years. Staff members will report results to The Joint Commission quarterly to demonstrate that the hospital continues to meet requirements. The Joint Commission is an independent nonprofit organization that accredits and certifies health care organization and programs nationwide. Dr. Frederick and Ms. Hamit reviewed a powerpoint presentation, attached that summarized the outstanding progress the Center has made in delivering stroke care to residents of Northern Colorado. Great success has been achieved in forming a multi -disciplinary dysphagia management team when working with diagnosed stroke patients and their families. A reminder regarding stroke prevention that all can apply in our daily lives: The letters in the word "fast" will help you spot stroke signs and know when to call 9-1-1. • F — Face drooping • A — Arm weakness • S — Speech difficulty • T — Time to call 9-1-1. If you are unsure, call 9-1-1.
