SUBJECT: Approval of (Novation) Emergency Residential Care Placement Agreement
##24-086-105(5) with Vivencia & Cenon Aguirre (dba Sunshine Guest Home)
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)A BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECO NDATION W:
a. Approve and authorize the Health Services Director or his designee (Donna M. Wigand)
to execute on behalf of the County, (Novation) Emergency Residential Care Placement
Agreement #)24-086-105(5) with Vivencia & Cenon Aguirre (dba Sunshine Guest Home) ,
for the period from July 1, 1998 through June 30, 1999, to provide emergency
residential care to mentally disturbed adults who are potentially eligible for
SST/SSP, in an amount not to exceed $703 per client per month through December 31,
1998, and in an amount not to exceed $738 per client per month beginning January 1,
1999; and
b. Authorize the Auditor-Controller to pay an amount not to exceed $93 per month
through December 31, 1998, and an amount not to exceed $98 per month beginning
January 1, 1999, to clients who are placed in the board and care facilities under
said Emergency Residential Care Placement Agreements for incidental expenses and
personal needs.
FISCAL IMPACT
Under this program, the County pays the State-established rates for the residential care
of mental health clients who are not yet receiving SSI/SSP (but who are potentially
eligible and have made formal application to the Social Security Administration for
SSI/SSP) , contingent upon the client's signing an agreement with the County to reimburse
the County from the SSI/SSP money, once it is finally granted by the federal government
(usually 3 to 6 months retroactively back to the month of application) .
For those mental health clients who are not granted SSI/SSP (i.e. , are found ineligible) ,
the County covers the residential care payments to the facility operators through the
County's established Mental Health Program Funding. Initially, ten to twenty percent of
the clients are found ineligible by the Federal Social Security Administration, depending
on changes in Federal guidelines, and then some of these are ultimately found eligible
through appeal processes.
SAACKQROX=jRZAffON(S) FOR RBCOM'IIIMMATION(S) :
On June 24, 1997, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #24-086 .105(4) with Vivencia
& Cenon Aguirre (dba Sunshine Guest Home) , to provide emergency residential care to
mentally disturbed adults who are potentially eligible for SSI/SSP, for the period from

prior Contract, and will allow the Contractor to continue providing services through June
30, 1999.
