RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Unpaid Student Training Agreement #76-545-1 with Diablo Medical Training, a corporation, to provide its phlebotomy students supervised field instruction at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health Centers, from May 1, 2017 through April 30, 2020.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This is a non-financial agreement.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this agreement is not approved, the students will not receive supervised fieldwork instruction experience at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health Centers.

BACKGROUND:

The purpose of this agreement is to provide Diablo Medical Training phlebotomy students with the opportunity to integrate academic knowledge with applied skills at progressively higher levels of performance and responsibility. Supervised fieldwork experience for students is considered to be an integral part of both educational and professional preparation. The Health Services Department can provide the requisite field education, while at the same time, benefiting from the students’ services to patients.

On June 14, 2016, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #76-545, with Diablo Medical Training phlebotomy students for the provision of supervised fieldwork instruction experience with Health Services, for the period from May 1, 2016 through April 30, 2017.

Approval of Unpaid Student Training Agreement #76-545-1 will allow Diablo Medical Training students to receive supervised fieldwork instruction experience, at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health Centers through April 30, 2020.
