These referrals so this month, 547 referrals meant, 547 facetoface contacts with individuals in hospitals offering Transitional Care Services and all of the other services that we provide and it has been an incredible part of our program doing this hospital out reach, and i just also want to acknowledge everyone in the intake, because the people up here, there are a portion of our larger staff, and there is about 25 or so, individuals that really keep the unit humming and with the increase that we have seen over 50 percent, in just the last few months, we have not had additional staffing. And the people who are doing the transitional care, work in house, processing referrals and processing all of the other referrals and providing information assistance, we have been able to provide that at the same level and the quality that we are providing before this massive increase and so it is congratulations to everyone and i also as you said, i want to acknowledge all of the struggles that we h

Good morning commissioners and director, my name is linda merlin, and i am the director of the Richmond Senior center in district one of the city. Case had its annual board retreat on september 15th and we talked at length about restructuring and revisioning committees and bringing more case members in to committees. We are also working on our budget platform, and advocacy plan for next year, now. And with the idea that if we do it now, we will be right on top of everything. We are also rewriting Mission Statement and vision statement just to keep
And over all, recommendation is to have a care advisory board, and that would operate under the long term coordinating council and one of the cochairs of the task force is our very own anne hinton and if you have questions i am sure that she can help with that. Another issue that came up on the council that actually has been coming up in the community quite a bit is, looking at the group of people who are long term survivors of hiv and aids. And there is a great tag line about envisioning our future we never dreamed of. And so it is for the group of people who are dealing with the issues that people had not planned for and so there a project called community connect, which may be similar to the homeless connect, project. And the last item was a legislative update and although i dont need to say anything about that and it has been covered today and the other thing that i wanted to mention, was that the same day, as this meeting, we did the first of the five town Hall Meetings that the c
Yes, good news. Governor brown three days ago signed ten bills governing the Residential Care in california. That is the Residential Care facility for the elderly, what this is, is a home supposed to be assistance leaving home for the seniors.

So, we saw with this, and there is a lot of new legislation, you know, how to take care of this problem. And take care of all of the seniors in this nursing home. As we saw at that, the governor signed about ten bills. And not all the bills that is planning he signed and we will continue to put on these improvements in our coming days. And the inaudible is none, and at the beginning all of these nursing f
Recommendations and so on. But, they have informed us that you know, the folks that they have talked to about this are saying, that 200 people from across the country is not enough, you cant have this big of a deal going on, and you cant have a white house conference and only have 200 people come to washington for it. I mean that more people come to washington for the alzheimers work and for a policy briefing and so on. And so i think that there is going to be an effort now to look at a larger venue, with more people, but it is not clear, again, how those people will be chosen, to be part of that, so, it is a pretty exciting time, again the last one was in 199. , so ten years ago and it has been a long time everybody has been wondering given that there is an early americas act and authorized that there will be a conference itself, and we are going to be using technology and San Francisco is positioned well and we have computer labs and we need to figure out a way to help the older adul
