There will be opportunities for collaboration that will reduce the total number of surveys needed. Dr. Smith will provide more information to the team at the next meeting. The team briefly discussed the CIRP survey that will be conducted at Paws Preview. Human Research Subjects Susan handed out a Handbook for Using Human Subjects in Research that she got from the OSRP web page. Everyone agreed that this was much easier to understand and follow than the actual policy.
Many offices have ongoing comment cards, etc.

We will need to educate staff and begin using that language. Suggestion was made to develop a checklist for users with key information about the IRB process. Forms needed are available on their website.
