PURPOSE: To consider making appointments to the Nursing Home Community Advisory
Committee.
BACKGROUND: The following information is for Board consideration:
POSITION NAME SPECIAL TYPE OF EXPIRATION
NO. REPRESENTATIVE APPOINTMENT DATE
TERM
1 Martha Bell At-Large Second Full Term 01/31/2022
2 Bill Morgan At-Large One Year Training 02/19/2020
Term
NOTE - If the individuals listed above are appointed, the following vacancies remain:
Staff has been in discussion with Autumn Cox, Regional Long Term Care Ombudsman
(TJCOG) about the possibility of turning the (4) Nursing Home Administration positions into At-
Large positions, as we were able to do in a similar situation many years ago with the Adult Care
Home Community Advisory Committee.
(SPECIAL NOTATION: ASIDE FROM THE RECOMMENDATIONS ABOVE, NONE OF THE
OTHER APPLICANTS HAVE BEEN SELECTED FOR THE MANDATORY TRAINING PRIOR
TO RECOMMEDATION TO APPOINTMENT.)
POSITION POSITION EXPIRATION VACANCY INFORMATION
NO. DESIGNATION DATE
5 Nursing Home 06/30/2020 This position has been vacant since
Administration 1/5/2018.
7 Nursing Home 06/30/2020 This position has been vacant since
Administration 12/12/2018.
2
10 At-Large 06/30/2020 This position has been vacant since
1/5/2018.
(NOTE: As of July 1, 2017, a new bill was passed in the North Carolina Legislature regarding
the training period for pending members of the "Adult Care Home Community Advisory
Committee and Nursing Home Community Advisory Committee". The bill is HB248 which
reverses the appointment of the applicant to a one year training term. Applicants will be
selected from our county "Applicant Interest List" for a more condensed training and if the
applicant successfully completes the training, they would be recommended for appointment.
Therefore, when an applicant is recommended for appointment, it would initially be for a one
year preliminary term and their training will have already been completed.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None
SOCIAL JUSTICE IMPACT: Enable Full Civic Participation. Ensure that Orange County
residents are able to engage government through voting and volunteering by eliminating
disparities in participation and barriers to participation.
RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board consider making
appointments to the Nursing Home Community Advisory Committee.

From: Vibeke Talley, Chair
Re: Reappointment of Martha Bell
Date: 01/14/2019
On behalf of the Orange County Nursing Home Community Advisory Committee I would like to
recommend Martha Bell for reappointment to our committee. She is a very active and engaged
member of the committee. She functions as secretary of the committee and contributes
frequently with timely news reports related to long term care for the committee to explore and
learn from. She makes nursing home site visits and prepares the reports. She attends meetings
but had to miss the January 2018 meeting due to a recent surgery (please see attached
attendance record). She is a valued member of our committee and she is interested in
continuing on the committee.
Please let me know if you need additional information to move this recommendation forward.
