RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Unpaid Student Training Agreement #22-983-6, with Mt. Diablo Unified School District (MDUSD), Adult Education, an educational institution, to provide supervised field instruction to dental assistant students in the County’s Public Health Division for the period from July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2026.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This is a non-financial agreement.

BACKGROUND:

The purpose of this agreement is to provide MDUSD, Adult Education dental assistant 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. MDUSD, Adult Education has been a provider in the County’s Public Health Division since 2009.

On October 13, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #22-983-5 with MDUSD, Adult Education for the period from July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2023 for the provision of supervised fieldwork instruction experience with Health Services.

Approval of Unpaid Student Training Agreement #22-983-6 will allow MDUSD, Adult Education dental assistant students to receive supervised fieldwork instruction experience in the County’s Public Health Division through June 30, 2026.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, the MDUSD dental students will not receive supervised fieldwork instruction experience in County’s Public Health Division.
