Dear Mr. Freeman,
The Nursing Home Community Advisory Committee would like to recommend Ms. Sandra Jones for a
one year training term. Ms. Jones has been an RN for over 50 yearswith her specialty being
geriatrics. She has experience working in nursing homes as a charge nurse, supervisor, and Director of
Nursing. In addition, she has served asa Nursing Home Administrator in Michigan. Her longterm care
expertise will be valuable to the advocacy work of our committee.
The Nursing Home Community Advisory Committee would also like to recommend Ms.Sandra Lemons
for a one year training term. Ms. Lemons has worked at a large retirement center and knows the
importance of quality of care for residents. She has participated in training on Fbsident Rights, Bder
Abuse Prevention,and Dementia Care. Ms. Lemons has a passion for ensuring that longterm care
residents receive the best quality of care in a safe living environment.
The Policies and Procedures for the Nursing Home Community Advisory Committee state of that one-
third of its members must be chosen from among persons nominated by a majority of the chief
administrators of nursing homes in the County. However it goes onto state that if the nursing
home administrators fail to make a nomination within 45 days after written notification these
appointments maybe made by the Board of County Commissioners without nominations. Arequest for
nominationswas sent to the county Nursing Home Administrators on 11/12/13. However,we are
anticipating that we will not receive nominations from this group.
Due to the provision outlined above, the Community Advisory Committee is requesting that Ms.Jones
and Ms. Lemons be appointed to the vacancies that have been designated for Nursing Home
Administration at the January,2014 BOCCmeeting. This will allow 45 days for the Nursing Home
Administrators to make a nomination should they choose to.
Please let me know if you need any further information from me to move these recommendations
forward.
Thank you for your assistance.
Best F;bgards,
Charlotte

Boards/Commissions applied for:
Advisory Board on Aging
I am energized by solving problems and taking on challenges. With over 1
person turning 50 every second due to the dramatic achievements in public
health, Orange County is poised to see a 67% increase in persons over 65
and a 43% increase in persons over 85 in the next 10 years. This trend
continues through 2030 when persons over 65 will again increase by 42%
and over 85 by 70%. Orange county is a leader in serving its senior
population and I want to contribute to preparing and meeting these needs
throughout the next 20 years.
Although I worked as a chemical engineer for 15 years, I recently returned
to school to get a BA in Multidisciplinary studies, with an emphasis on social
sciences and the Socio-Ecological Model which shows that the health of an
individual is based not just on the person but withing the greater context of
his relationships, his community and his society. Because of my interest in
the aging process, I am currently completing a Masters in Gerontology from
the University of Southern California. Through this program I have been
able to receive the training and tools that will aid me in pursuing my goal of
improving the disparity in the aging experience between the different
economic classes. The research area where I am basing my concentration
consists of early depression intervention for the home caregiver. Many
home caregivers are thrust into their duties with little to no training and as
more residents, especially in the rural areas, are deciding to age in place
there will be a need for increased programs to address the adult child or
spousal caregiver, many of whom are over 50.
1 am excited to be beginning this new phase of my life as I turn 50, and
consider myself to be a life-long learner who believes that we are all part of
something larger and there is purpose to all our lives. My belief system
influences all I do and I value responsibility and high ethical standards. I
15
Page 2 of 2 Susan Adams
believe that the strategic methods of problem solving I utilized as an
engineer allows me to find and evaluate alternatives and seek innovative
ways to get things done. I believe in community involvement as I was a
member of the School Improvement Team (SIT)committee for McDougle
Middle School for 2 years, worked as a volunteer at the Chapel Hill Museum
for 3 years, and have been a member of the MAC-Mandarin Advisory
Council for the dual language program in CHCCS since it began and my
daughter has been part of the program for the past 8 years. As my children
are growing up and moving on to new goals, I feel that I too must focus my
time and energies on the future.
I appreciate your time in considering me for this position.
Nursing Home Community Advisory Committee
I am graduating with my Masters of Arts in Gerontology in May 2014 from
the University of Southern California. My BS is multi disciplinary in
psychology and public health. My concentration of study is in environmental
interventions to decrease agitation in persons with dementia. I currently
volunteer at Galloway Ridge and care part time for my elderly parents who I
relocated to Chatham County in 2008.

Boards/Commissions applied for:
Nursing Home Community Advisory Committee
Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
After retiring from active duty with the Army Nurse Corps in 1995, accepted position of Director
of Nursing, Carol Woods Retirement Community, serving in that capacity for 12 years, and then
continued in special projects as identified by the President/CEO, Carol Woods, for another 5
years; also eventually had operational responsibility for assisted living, and infection control for
the organization. Coordinated clinical assignments in long term care for nursing and nursing
assistant students from DCC and NCCU. Taught fundamentals of elder care to staff and
students; served as consultant with CARF and AAHSA reviewing health and service delivery
standards.
Reasons for wanting to serve on this board:
Throughout the years at Carol Woods, I met many members of this Cmmunity Committee,
through their advisory capacity; always impressed with their respect for the older adult and
circumstances that lead a person(s)to seek long term care, I knew I was unable to serve this
17
Page 2 of 2 Martha Bell
committee until I retired from the business of elder services. I ve continued to keep my nursing
license current, attending related education offerings in the infection control, gerontology and
health care for the years since retirement from full time work. While volunteering in Durham, I
really want to serve my local community and continue to put my knowledge of aging services
and long term care to good use.
Conflict of Interest:
Board of Health
Background, education and experience relevant to this board:
RN, BSN, MSN; attendance at 3.5 day infection control in long term care course offered by
SPICE every two years; recent course attendance at offering regading CDiff; served as infection
control consultant for Carol Woods Retirement Community 12 years while also serving as its
Director of Nursing/Health Services.
Reasons for wanting to serve on this board:
Throughout the years at Carol Woods, I was often involved with Board of Health issues,
including outbreak investigation, tuberculosis control, difficulties encountered in Infection Control
for the older adult in a long term care/congregate living environment. I purposely kept my
nursing license current despite my retirement from full time nurse because I hoped to eventually
serve my community in some capacity related to my professional knowledge. I seek only an
activity that will use my knowledge rather than any paid position.

Other Comments:
I have spent most of my life working to better provide assistance to infants, children,
young adults, those at risk, and senior citizens. As a result of spending days and nights
in several nursing homes sitting with elderly parents and relatives, I've gained a deeper
understanding and compassion for elderly residents and workers in nursing facilities.

To Whom It Concerns:
I have worked in healthcare for over 15 years and have successfully managed operations
and finances for medium and large healthcare organizations. I earned an MBA with a
concentration in accounting in 2004. I also gained the CMA certification from the Institute
of Management Accountants to further my knowledge and prepare for a Director level
position.
In my current position as a regional manager, I helped develop new markets (Georgia)
and new programs for internal and external growth. I assisted the sales team to ensure
operations and new business growth was aligned with the company5ETMs long term
strategic plan. The region and company has grown significantly due to my focus on new
markets and new programs.
I have volunteer experiences that have also contributed to my professional development.
I enjoyed serving on the Hillsborough County Healthcare Advisory Board for the past 4
years and have contributed to fiscal policy development for the county healthcare plan. I
also serves on the Board of Directors for the Health Council of West Central Florida to
serve their mission to educate consumers in the region about healthcare issues. I held
this position for 2 years while living in Florida.
I am excited about getting involved in the Chapel Hill community and sharing my
