Subject:Increase position hours of a Public Health Nurse in the Health Services Department
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
assigned to the position. The caseload of the incumbent encompasses West County where there is a great need for
Public Health Nurse services. Due to the closure of hospitals and clinics within the vicinity, there is an increased
amount of clients who need assistance with resources, resulting to the increase in the number of referrals received
by the Unit. The increased work hours will allow the incumbent to continue to respond to the needs of the
community and close the gap in services. It is therefore deemed appropriate to increase the position hours of
position #8777 from 24/40 to 40/40.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this action is not approved, services needed by the community will not be provided.
