RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Unpaid Student Training Agreement #22-610-9 with Sonoma State University, an educational institution, to provide supervised field instruction in the County’s Public Health Division to nursing students, for the period from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2024.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This is a nonfinancial agreement.

BACKGROUND:

The purpose of this agreement is to provide Sonoma State University, nursing 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. The County has contracted with Sonoma State University for these unpaid student training services since 1997.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On April 24, 2018, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #22-610-8 with Sonoma State University to provide supervised fieldwork instruction experience with Health Services, for the period from July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2021.

Approval of Unpaid Student Training Agreement #22-610-9, will allow Sonoma State University nursing students to receive supervised fieldwork instruction experience, in County’s Public Health Division, through June 30, 2024.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this agreement is not approved, Sonoma State University nursing students will not receive supervised fieldwork instruction experience in the County’s Public Health Division.
