Board discusses shelter surgical-suite SOP; Riverside vet to assist, Bissell grant noted
Summary
Chair Lee Jackson and Superintendent Nicole Cates said staff are assembling a supply list and pricing for a proposed in-shelter surgical suite; Dr. Collins at Riverside will help build a standard operating procedure and the board discussed possible Bissell Foundation grant support.
Chair Lee Jackson and LCAS Superintendent Nicole Cates updated the board on preliminary work toward a shelter surgical suite. "Lee Jackson sent over a Petdesk SOP," the minutes state; Cates said she has spoken with Dr. Collins at Riverside, who "is going to help build an SOP," and staff are compiling supply lists and pricing as part of a cost analysis.
Jackson noted that the Bissell Foundation has a grant program and that veterinarians have offered to assist, but the project is currently on the back burner while staff complete a pricing review. No formal motion or funding decision was made; the board will retain the item for future consideration once cost and supply details are assembled.
