Subject:P300 to Reclassify one Community Health Worker II position and incumbent to a Community Health Worker
Specialist
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
of a classification study conducted in 2000, it was determined that Community Health Worker IIs assigned to the
Healthy Start Program be reclassified to the Specialist Level because incumbents perform less clerical duties and
provide more client-centered education and assessment under the supervision of a nurse. Ms. Macaulay is
currently performing initial assessments for the Healthy Start clients in the areas of health education and
psychosocial issues, conducting and facilitating nutrition and pre-natal classes, and making referrals according to
protocols. The incumbent independently conducts initial clients and family needs evaluations; interviews clients
and their families to develop a social/health care needs plan; assists staff in assessing specific conditions and in
developing treatment plans. Ms. Macaulay has been performing at the higher level duties for more than six
months.
In review of Ms. Macaulay’s application, I have confirmed that she meets the minimum qualifications to be
reclassified to the Community Health Worker Specialist classification. She has almost four years of experience
providing health care education information and services to clients in our communities.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this action is not approved, the incumbent will not be classified and compensated appropriately.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
Not applicable.
