BACKGROUND:

The Health Services Department is requesting to increase the hours of permanent Licensed Vocational Nurse (VT7G) position #9841 from 32/40 to 40/40, Occupational Therapist II (V5VH) position #7592 from 26/40 to 28/40, and Dietitian (1KSA) position #8785 from 16/40 to 40/40 as provided by the memorandum of understanding between the County and Public Employees Union, Local One. The incumbents have been working the increased hours in the past six months and the Department has determined there is an ongoing need for these increased hours in order to maintain patient care in Martinez Detention, Rehabilitation Therapy and Nutrition Services.
