and call the meeting to order, Reverend Jacqueline Kelly, will you please lead us in the invocation? Good afternoon. Let us pray. Dear God, we thank you for this opportunity to come together. We ask you to guide us, teach us how to guard our heart, to be slow as we meditate on the things that come before us, give us wisdom, knowledge, and understanding, and lead us and show us the way. Amen. This is a time for a reasonable opportunity for the public to be heard. Is there anybody, Lourdes? We don't have anybody. Anybody here? Okay. I need a motion to set the agenda, please. Do we have a second? Second. All those in favor? Aye. I need a motion for the approval of the minutes from May 27, 2026. So moved. All those in favor? Aye. Great. Next on the agenda is the chairperson's report. That would be me. As earlier today, Amadeo Lopez Castro was kind enough to nominate me as the incoming chair for the public health system. And I want to just extend my gratitude to the board for the confidence and the trust that you are placing in me. It's an honor to serve in this role alongside you. And as I've shared with folks, if I'm doing something wrong, please kick me and let me know. At this time, though, I really would first like to acknowledge our outgoing chair, Amadeo Lopez Castro. His dedication, leadership, and commitment to serving the public health trust has been exceptional and unwavering. And I know that his service has really been driven by a sense of legacy. His father held this seat many, many years ago, and Amadeo has just done an incredible job and has led with excellence. Your contributions, Amadeo, have helped position us for the future. And we really all would like to thank you for that. Thank you, Carmen. You're welcome. As we begin an exciting new chapter with our new CEO, David Zambrana, I look forward to working together with everyone from leadership, the board, and especially David, as we build upon our strong foundation and focus on our next era for Jackson and the system. And we continue keeping our patience at the heart of everything we do and serving the community with excellence and compassion. At this time, David, I'd like to turn it over to you for a president and CEO report. Thank you, Madam Chairwoman. It's been just over three weeks since I assumed the role of president and CEO of the Jackson Health System. And I want to, again, thank this board for the confidence that you've entrusted and placed in me. The transition has been incredibly smooth, which speaks volumes about the strength of our leadership and the culture within the organization. Jackson is a special place for so many reasons. At the top of that list is its people who choose to build their careers here. They're passionate about the work they do and the patients we serve. And at times, as we saw this morning, those worlds intersect when our team members become patients. During this morning's Committee of the Whole meeting, you heard the remarkable story of one of our Jackson team members, Sean Riley, who began experiencing stroke symptoms while on the job as a material handler and supply chain. Sean's colleagues recognized the signs and symptoms and stepped in immediately alerting nearby nurses and doctors. He was having an ischemic stroke, which caused him to lose function on the left side of his body. After being treated at Jackson Memorial, Sean was moved to Lynn Rehabilitation Center. Next Thursday, June 30th, marks one year since Sean's stroke. He's back at work and fully functional. That doesn't happen by chance. Jackson Memorial Hospital CEO, Joanne Ruggiero, reported earlier today about the remarkable quality, safety, and patient satisfaction scores throughout our entire rehab service line. This care delivered throughout our system at Lynn Rehab and at our three community hospitals is best in class. Clinical excellence is delivered in our gyms, our inpatient settings, helping patients gain their independence, build confidence, and achieve outcomes that rank among the very best in the nation. Since opening its doors six years ago, Lynn Rehab has become a national leader in rehabilitation medicine, with U.S. News & World Report ranking it last year as the 28th best rehab hospital in the nation among 1,049 hospitals surveyed, placing it in the top 3% of our nation. The new rankings will be released later this summer, and we're hopeful that Lynn Rehab will once again be considered among the country's best. I'd now like to turn to recognizing a community leader, and I share your thoughts in your opening, whose service as chairman of the Public Health Trust has been defined by rigor, honesty, discipline, and unwavering commitment to Jackson. Over the last two years, Amadeo Lopez Castro has served as chairman of this board, a hefty responsibility that he has never taken lightly. He asks questions, challenges assumptions, and holds us accountable, because he understands the importance of stewardship and the trust that has been placed in us and in this 108-year-old institution. Amadeo's passion for Jackson runs deep. As you mentioned, Madam Chairwoman, it's part of his family's legacy. Following in the footsteps of his father and namesake, who also served as our chairman of the Public Health Trust decades ago. While the historical connection is unique and certainly gives him bragging rights, Amadeo III's contributions have uniquely been his own. He has been a tireless advocate of our mission, our patients, and our workforce. He has also been alongside the ride, or alongside us for the ride, during many milestones, most recently as we opened our brand-new emergency room at Jackson Memorial Hospital. On a personal level, I have had the privilege of really getting to know Amadeo during the process that ultimately brought me to this role as CEO. Through countless conversations and many questions, I saw firsthand what an honorable man he is. Someone who is guided by integrity and never makes an important decision without weighing the pros and cons. He is a man of character who earns the respect everyone has placed around him. While Amadeo's term as chairman ends today, his service to Jackson, fortunately, is not. He will continue serving as a member of this board, so we will continue to benefit from his wisdom and expertise. So on behalf of the entire Jackson team, Amadeo, thank you for your leadership, your time, your talent, and the countless hours you have devoted to Jackson. We are stronger because of your service, and I hope you are proud of all you have contributed towards our success. If we may... We thank our outgoing chairman for his extraordinary leadership. We also are reminded that strong organizations thrive off of continuity. Fortunately, we're passing the gavel to another lifetime-long or lifelong Miami board member, Carmen Sabater. Carmen is a role model, a business and civic leader whose professional experience as a chief financial officer has undoubtedly made Jackson a stronger, healthier organization. Carmen has served on this board for six years, helping shape decisions that have contributed to Jackson's incredible transformation. I know Carmen is excited. I certainly am, and ready to help guide us through our next chapter of our journey. Thank you, Carmen, for stepping into the role. I look forward to partnering with you as we continue to advance Jackson's mission, serve our community, and grow for generations to come. And that concludes my report. Thank you. Thank you, David. Let's go ahead and take a picture, and we have a little something for Amadeo. So we'll hand the mic over to Amadeo. Thank you, Carmen. Thank you all. I just want to say thank you to, as always, to what makes Jackson great, which is the people in Jackson. It's the doctors, the nurses, the staff, the team, the financials, everyone, everyone that walks these halls. I especially want to thank Esther. She's the boss for me. She's the one that helped me navigate how to do this job better. It's not a job. It's really I'm happy to serve. It's all it is. But Esther, thank you. Thank you, Lourdes, and Ariana, and everybody at the executive office, without them reminding me and telling me how to be more involved, and always with a smile, always with some helpful way about them, never with any other way but that. To Carlos Begoya, who's not here today, he's probably enjoying himself, and I think well-deserved. I can never thank him enough for asking me to come here and to try to serve this institution and learning from him on how to give and how to always reach for more. I think that's something that I definitely learned from him. To David, who is now taken over in three weeks. You already look different. You're certainly skinnier. You know, to Laura and to Chris, the county attorneys who help me and always answer my stupid questions or whatever questions. And then most of all to the members of this board, the ones that are here, the ones that have served alongside of me, because I have been fortunate enough to see the board of this trust when it wasn't this, when it didn't have a united vision, a united mission. And the level of just pure public service that I have been able to see here gives me hope that we are in a good place in Miami-Dade County. We're in a very good place when it comes to Jackson Health System. So to you guys, thank you, really. Thank you, Amadeo, and thank you, David. Earlier today, the Committee of the Whole met, and I will report out a summary for the audit and compliance, the quality update, and the fiscal update. Do you want to take the internal audit since you chaired it for us today? So the Audit and Compliance Committee gave their presentation today. It reported strong progress in their continuing task to go through all of the different areas that we look at. As one of the members of our board previously said during that committee, this is a good thing. Our audit and compliance committee is a very good thing. They work very well with everyone, and it's an opportunity to be better. We're good, but we can be better, and they certainly do a job. I noted that there is a significant progress always in getting better, in continuing to become more compliant, if you will. And they showed that even though they're in the middle of continuing their examinations and reporting, they are on track in order to provide reports at the end of the year. They had 10 audit reports that were issued during the third quarter, most of them receiving satisfactory or needs to improve ratings, which certainly shows the positive progress that I mentioned earlier. Several reoccurring observations were identified in areas like contract management, accounts payable, patient transportation. So that reinforces our continuing look to improve and to be better. Management continues to find areas to address with more than 60% of open observations reported as completed and just awaiting validation at this time. And that concludes my report. Thank you. We also had a presentation by Joanne on the Lynn Rehab Center, and I think David encapsulated what was reported in terms of national rankings and just best places with respect to the care and delivery of services as ranked by U.S. News and World Report. The quality performance remains obviously very strong with zero hospital acquired infections across the rehab units, both at Lynn and Jackson North Rehab. The patient experience scores continue to exceed organizational targets, reflecting outstanding care provided by the rehab team. I can personally attest to the fact how caring the team is. My mother spent her length of stay. She didn't contribute to a higher length of stay, but she stayed her length of stay earlier this year, and the level of care and the compassion that the team shows is just second to none. The team also reported that they highlighted an innovative community outreach partnership, including what's called social prescribing program, which connects patients with non-clinical resources that support overall health and well-being. Very interesting program and hopefully one that will continue to resonate with the community. Lastly, we had a financial report. We had included in the financial report, prior to that, we had our purchasing update, and we had some leases that we will cover in our resolutions. But basically, we continue to be ahead of plan year-to-date. We're ahead of budget by $6 million. We have, through June, received 50% of our supplemental payments, which had been significantly delayed earlier this year, and we are proposing to move forward to the Board of County Commissioners' bond offering to fund continued growth for the system, especially with respect to IT investments that need to be made. So that concludes the report from the Committee of the Whole. And now I'll turn it over to Council to walk us through the resolutions. Okay. Before, you've got item 10A, which is your privileges and credentialing resolution for June 2026. You've got item 10B, the resolution authorizing the purchasing report for June 2026. You've got item 10C, which is authorizing the execution of a second amendment to the lease agreement with the University of Miami for environmental services at the Lynn Rehab Center. You've got 10D, authority to execute the bifurcated lease agreement with the residences at Wagner Creek LLC for the development of phase two of the Jackson Medical Towers redevelopment project. You've got 10E, which is delegating additional authority of the chief executive officer, his designee pertaining to the lease or license of certain real property on behalf of the PHT. And 10F, which is requesting that the Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners authorize the issuance of not to exceed $275 million aggregate principal amount of Miami-Dade County Public Facility Revenue Bonds Series 2026. So you can take those items, 10A through F, together or separately, however you deem appropriate. We'll go ahead and take them together. Do we have a motion? Second. All those in favor? Aye. Any opposed? Okay, great. Any additional comments from any board member at this time? If not, we'll take a motion to adjourn the meeting. All those in favor? Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Aye.
