| 1 | Minutes of August meeting (4 August 2008) |
| Accepted without amendments or changes. | |
| 2 | Matters arising |
|
2.1 Steve Roberts has said that it would not be
acceptable to communicate with ambulance control using non-ambulance service
radios as that could compromise patient confidentiality. He offered the use
of old ambulance service "brick-type" analogue radios. However, it's known
that there were black spots using them so they wouldn't necessarily help us. Nat suggested trialling a web-based phone diversion system whereby ambulance control would dial a university land line (which actually would not have a physical phone attached) and the software would automatically divert to whatever phone had been set up in the software, e.g. FR mobile, member's DECT or member's mobile. If that preferred phone was unobtainable then others on a priority list would be contacted in turn. Jerry will take this forward with Nat. ACTION: JERRY Veronyca mentioned that DECT repeaters have still not been installed in her building creating problems when she is on call. Jerry to investigate. ACTION: JERRY 2.2 The training AED has arrived and had been used by those attending the September meeting. |

| 3 | Calls received |
|
The 7 calls received since the August
meeting were discussed and it was decided to add the Student Services phone
number to the numbers in the FR phone memory. It will then be easy to
contact Student Services in the event of a situation occurring whereby a
student with special difficulties is being attended. Jerry will clear this
with Simon Wright. With regard to the difficulty experienced gaining entry to a bedroom in the halls, Jerry has arranged with Tony Hammett, the Residential Operations Manager, to receive a master key that will open all the interior doors in the new halls. This will be kept with (attached to?) the FR phone. Jerry will look again at the situation re the older halls. |

pastures new. We wish her the very best in her new job 4.1 As it's now 2 years since the full scheme started in the university retraining is due. Also there are a further 4 members of staff keen to receive initial training. Jerry will liaise with Steve Roberts to arrange courses or find out about other courses taking place within our area.
