   2017.  Jan is coordinating the conference and has spoken with Donna at Shrine

   Mont who will put our contract together in the fall.

·  Spring 2018 Planning 

       a)     We will focus the Spring Conference on sexual addiction and treatment - 

               identifying potential victims and predators, a speaker to discuss

               victimology, and someone from the ID field to address sexual addiction or

               abuse or acting out behaviors within the ID population and how our ID

               nurses can best address these issues.  We are trying to do a better job of

               providing programming for our ID nurse population. 

       b)     Tentative conference title: “Sex and the Commonwealth”

       c)     Conference outcome: The nurse will be able to identify problematic 

               sexual behaviors and their impact on families and society.

       d)     Friday morning speaker: Dr. Robert Gardella is confirmed to speak – can 

               do a case review (someone with sex offense history) and cover overall

               “risk assessment and management” and some of the med treatment for

               sex offenders.

       e)      Thursday speaker: Jeff Wilder from CVTC has been confirmed to speak

                about sexual behaviors/acting out and issues within the ID population

       f)      Thursday speaker: We have a Sex Offender Therapist who will speak on

                treatment programs and groups and resources within the CSB and

                community setting.

       g)     We are planning to reach out to Dr. Evan Nelson who has done a lot of

               outpatient sex offender evaluations (“300”) to discuss victimology.

       h)     We would like to have a forensic nurse speak and join the panel

               discussion about identifying a victim and how to guide them through the  

               process of reporting.  Nina will see if she can contact a Sexual Assault

               Nurse Examiner.

       i)      Keynote speaker on Thursday: From NAMI?– Angela will try to find a

               contact for this.

       j)      Alkermes (Aristada & Vivitrol) to sponsor dinner/reception

                        - Instead of a sponsored dinner (since dinner is included in Shrine

                          Mont cost), we will ask the sponsor if they can do a wine/dessert

                          reception after dinner.

       k)    Add a mindfulness/self-care activity to Thursday night at Spring

              Conference (7 PM to 8 PM?)

                        - Ideas: paint night, yoga meditation, dancing, speaker on self-care

                        - Jen can do a paint night event (these should be hour sessions)

                        - Marina could possibly take a group for a hike

                        - Jen has a Family Feud game that would be a great icebreaker

                        - Possibly have yoga in the morning before breakfast?

 

·      Update website: conference registration is now open on our website

·      Consider making Regional Reps responsible for keeping a list of drug rep

       vendors and reaching out before each conference event

·      Michele will add a “Program List “section on the registration forms for each

       conference to track and make e-mail lists for Programs ex. Outpatient, PACT,

       CS, etc.

·      Fall Location for 2018?

                        - Craddock Terry has offered to host us again

                        - LuAnn will look into possible conference locations in Old Town

                          Alexandria and Reston

·      Consider increasing vendor fee for next year?

 

·  Adjournment – 2:00 PM
