M E M O R A N D U M O F E X P L A N A T I O N INTRODUCTION NO: ___________________ (Clerk’s use only) Committee of Jurisdiction: Human Services Date: January 3, 2018 Explanation:

The Health Department Director of Patient Services has officially announced June 9, 2018 as her retirement date. The Health Department Nurse Practitioner has given the same date as her unofficial retirement date, but it may be sooner. The Public Health Nurse has unofficially announced her retirement date as May 1, 2018. With three of the four Medical Clinical Staff unofficially retiring within a month of each other, I am requesting the ability to create a temporary Director of Patient Services position and temporary Nurse Practitioner position so they can be oriented and trained by existing staff. These positions will be no more than 3 months and then will be abolished as the permanent position holders retire and the temporary, new staff will move into those permanent positions. These are both critical, medical positions that require orientation and training. These temporary positions will insure smooth transition for our patients, other agencies and staff. Both of these positions are 100% reimbursable through Article 6 funds. No county tax dollars will be utilized. Department Head Signature: _________________________________________ Date: 01/03/2018
