RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 21911 to add five (5) Sheriff's Ranger (64WR)(represented) positions at salary plan and grade VN5 1017 ($3,261- $3,964) in the Sheriff's Office, Health Services Security Unit.

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% Contracted Services. Contra Costa County Health Services Department Security Services contract with the Office of the Sheriff.

BACKGROUND:

Contra Costa County Health Services contracts with the Office of the Sheriff to provide security services for the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and health clinics throughout the County. Due to a heightened alert to security breaches and to align the medical center with industry standard restricted access protocols for labor and delivery, postpartum, and nursery services, the Health Services Department has requested the presence of Sheriff personnel on the 5^th floor of the medical center. Five (5) Sheriff's Ranger positions will be added to provide security services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Positions will be funded by a contract agreement with the Contra Costa County Health Services Department.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to add the positions may cause safety concerns with unauthorized access to labor and delivery, postpartum, and the nursery floor in the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and in the Health Clinics throughout the County. This could result in not meeting the industry standards for restricted access protocols for labor and delivery, postpartum, and nursery services.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

No impact.
