RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #24-086-145(19) containing mutual indemnification with Crestwood Behavioral Health, Inc., a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $95,000, to provide adult residential care and mental health services for the period from January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this contract will result in budgeted expenditures of up to $95,000 and will be funded 100% by Mental Health Realignment funding.

BACKGROUND:

The Health Services Department has been contracting with Crestwood Behavioral Health, Inc., since September 2006 to provide residential care and mental health services to adults. This contract meets the social needs of the County’s population by providing a multi-disciplinary treatment program to adults who need active psychiatric treatment, including medication support and individual and group therapy services, as an alternative to hospitalization at a State Hospital.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On November 3, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #24-086-145(18) with Crestwood Behavioral Health, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $95,000, to provide adult residential care and mental health services for the period from January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021.

Approval of Contract #24-086-145(19) will allow the contractor to continue providing services through December 31, 2022. This contract includes mutual indemnification to hold harmless both parties for any claims arising out of the performance of this contract.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, the County’s mental health clients will not receive the inpatient psychiatric treatment they need from this contractor and may require hospitalization at a State Hospital.
