RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Unpaid Student Training Agreement #26-119-13 with San Jose State University, an educational institution, to provide supervised field instruction at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers to dietitian, occupational therapy and speech pathology students, for the period from July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2021.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This is a non-financial agreement.

BACKGROUND:

The purpose of this agreement is to provide dietitian, occupational therapy and speech pathology students at San Jose State University 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, benefitting from the students’ services to patients.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On March 28, 2017, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-119-12 with San Jose State University, to provide supervised fieldwork instruction experience with Health Services for the period from July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2019.

Approval of Unpaid Student Training Agreement #26-119-13, will allow San Jose State University students to receive supervised fieldwork instruction experience, at CCRMC and Contra Costa Health Centers, through June 30, 2021.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

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