SUBJECT:
Approval of Contract #24-793-9 with Pine Tree Gardens, Inc .
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION(S) :
Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee (Donna
Wigand) , to execute on behalf of the County, Contract #24-793-9 with Pine
Tree Gardens, in an amount not to exceed $62 , 050 , for the period from July
1, 2001 through June 30 , 2002 , to provide augmented board and care services
to County-referred mentally disordered clients .
FISCAL IMPACT:
This Contract is funded by 51% Federal and 49% Mental Health Realignment
funds .
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(S) :
In December 2000 , the County Administrator approved and the Purchasing
Services Manager executed Contract #24-793-8 with Pine Tree Gardens, Inc . ,
for the period from July 1, 2000 through June 30 , 2001, to provide room and
board and twenty-four hour emergency residential care and supervision, to
severely and persistently mentally ill adults who are specifically referred
to Facility Operator for service .
In June 2001, the Department received a notice from Pine Tree Gardens, Inc .
of their intent to expand their services by adding a Medi-Cal Day Program.
Completion of this Contract has been delayed due to the complexicty of the
negotiation process with the Contractor. Contra Costa County benefits by
using this facility to provide treatment to its severely and persistently
mentally ill adults . These adults are at risk of high cost hospitalization
without this facility, which provides treatment at a much lower cost to the
County.
Approval of Contract #24-793-9 will allow the Contractor to continue
providing services through June 30 , 2002 .
