SMP: EXAMINING SAFETY ISSUES

The agency Director of Quality Assurance and the Director of Facilities jointly manage development, implementation, and monitoring of safety management throughout the agency. He/she primarily works with and through campus Environment of Care Committees, Improving Organizational Performance committees, the Executive Director, the Senior Vice President, Program Directors, and the Director of Facilities.

The campus Environment of Care Committee, which meets at least six times each year, is a multi-disciplinary work group responsible for the monitoring and coordination of safety on the campus. The Environment of Care Committee regularly reports to, and makes recommendations to the IOP (Improving Organizational Performance) Committee, which in turn makes recommendations and reports quarterly and annually to the Senior Management and the Board of Directors on performance issues, including safety and security. The Environment of Care Leadership Committee meets periodically to make decisions about and review progress on EOC related issues and projects.
