I. Old Business
A. Recycling Bench
The Health Department was able to find a park bench made
totally of recycled material for an excellent price
($235) from an Elk Grove Village Company. Pat Bourke
moved that the bench be purchased and placed on
Park District Property (Gazebo area) . The motion was
recorded by Dr. Kelly and unanimously approved. A
plaque will also be ordered to place on the bench. This
price does not include the plaque nor the footings and
placement of the bench.
B. Wildlife Permit
The Health Department received their Wildlife permit
from the Illinois Department of Conservation. New
forms have been prepared with new instructions as to the
release of animals caught in traps. The Health
Department is waiting for a decision from the Police
Department regarding the euthanizing of skunks, which
is required by the Illinois Department of
Conservation. The Board of Health also suggested that
a liability disclaimer clause be added to the trap
"rental" form releasing the Village of any liability
which could be incurred while the trap is in the
borrower's possession.
II. Routine Reports
A. Coordinator's Report
-- Immunization Clinic
160 children received 384 shots at the June 22nd
Clinic.
-- OHSA Standards Regarding Hepatitis B
(Bloodborne Pathogen Regulations)
The Health Department has been working closely
with Administration and the Fire, Police & Public
Works Departments regarding the OSHA Bloodborne
Pathogens (Hepatitis B) regulations. The Fire
Department has a comprehensive program in
conjunction with area Fire Departments and
Northwest Community Hospital. The Police
Department will be receiving training from the Elk
Grove Village Health Department nurse and
shots from Alexian Brothers Medical Center. Public
Works is currently opposed to participating in the
program because they feel their employees are not
at risk. All above departments have met and
discussed what is and will be done to be in
compliance with the OHSA regulations which will
be enforced by the Illinois Department of Labor.
The Health Department has strongly recommended that
certain employees from Public Works (those exposed
to blood and/or bodily fluids) be included in the
training session given by the Village Nurse.
Administration is encouraging them to participate.
Dr. Boyajian moved that Public Works employees at
risk of being exposed to Bloodborne pathogens and
bodily secretions fall under the OSHA guidelines and
should have a plan as dictated by OSHA. The motion
was seconded and passed unanimously.
Pat Bourke moved that the Board of Health go into executive
session at 8:30 p.m. , to discuss litigation. It was seconded by Dr.
Boyajian and passed unanimously.
The Board of Health resumed the regular session at 9:00 p.m.
Lending Closet
Homex received a number of calls and has loaned out 6 items to
date since June 19, 1992.
