RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 26113 to add one (1) Mental Health Program Chief (VQDN) position at salary plan and grade ZA5-2029 ($10,608 - $12,894) in the Health Services Department. (Represented)

FISCAL IMPACT:

Upon approval, this action will result in an annual cost of $253,187, with $60,002 in pension costs included. This position will be fully offset by 100% Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues and the future elimination of a position within the Health Services Department.

BACKGROUND:

Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) is requesting to add one Mental Health Program Chief position. This position is needed to help with the oversight of Inpatient Psychiatry and Psychiatric Emergency Services (PES). The position will be responsible for, but not limited to managing bed review and placement activities for patients, being a liaison with Behavioral Health on all matters related to the psychiatric operation at CCRMC & Health Centers, and supervising behaviorists, social workers, medical social workers, and other staff throughout CCRMC.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this request is not approved, this position will not be properly allocated to CCRMC and will negatively affect program activities.
