EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Napa County is obligated to maintain appropriate staffing levels to provide necessary psychiatric services to children and adults in accordance with the terms of its agreement with the State Department of Health Care Services. Jackson & Coker provides recruitment services for temporary and/or permanent placements of licensed psychiatrists (locum tenens) for the County's vacant staff psychiatrist positions, as needed.
Approval of this action will increase the contract maximum amount by $225,000 for a new maximum of $900,000 commencing in Fiscal Year 2021-2022, and each subsequent automatic renewal. The increase is a precautionary measure needed to ensure we are able to accommodate a need for multiple psychiatrists. Approval of this amendment would also raise the rate for locum services by $20 per hour.
