RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE the request of the Health Services Department to remove the Richmond Health Center, at 100 38th St in Richmond, from the Scope of the Health Care for the Homeless Project, due to the West County Health Center replacing the Richmond Health Center in 2011.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
BACKGROUND:
As the governing board for the CCHS Health Care for the Homeless (HCH) Program, the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors needs to approve all requests for change in scope of project through the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). This request is to remove the Richmond Health Center, located at 100 38th St in Richmond, CA, from the CCHS Scope of Project. The Richmond Health Center was replaced by the West County Health Center in 2011 and should no longer be included on the HRSA-approved site list. Removing unused and vacant health centers from the list of HRSA-approved sites is standard process when sites are no longer used for health services.
