RE COMMENDATION(S)
Approve and authorize the Health Services Director or his designee (Wendel Brunner,
M.D. ) , to accept on behalf of the County Grant Award Agreement #28-730, in an amount not
to exceed $35,000 from the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency, for the Asthma

FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this Grant Award Agreement will result in an amount not to exceed $35, 000

Management Education. (No County funds are required)
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RE COrMENDAT I ON(S) :
Asthma is a chronic respiratory disease of enormous public health significance and is
associated with significant disability and costs, both monetarily and its impact on the
quality of life. Asthma is the most common chronic disease of childhood and one of the
leading causes of childhood hospitalizations and school absences. A recent summary of
hospital discharge data compiled by the Regional Asthma Management and Prevention (RAMP)
Program provides specific information about areas of Contra Costa County where asthma is
disproportionately affecting children. It is the schools serving these communities and
the families living in these areas that are the focus of this project. In collaboration
with the Regional Asthma Management and Prevention (RAMP) Initiative, Richmond Health
Center, John Muir/MT. Diablo Health System, Contra Costa Health Plan and Public Health
Clinic Services, this project will be integrated into the pediatric asthma program
currently underway in Public Health Clinics Services. The goal of the project will be to
perform educational home visits to address the home environment and to enhance asthma
self-management skills by conducting in-school asthma management education for children
with asthma. This Project will also reduce school absences, emergency room visits and
hospitalizations for these children and assist in relieving some of the burdens that
families experience in dealing with this chronic disease.
Three sealed and certified copies of the Board should be returned to the Contracts and
Grants Unit.

practice and pediatric clinics are at-risk of overweigh or already overweight. The

disseminate "Have Fun and Be Healthy", an innovative pediatric obesity intervention
program for low-income children ages 3-11.
The goal of the program is to implement the "Have Fun and Be Healthy" program, determine
the provider and patient acceptance and effectiveness of the program and develop methods
to disseminate the program.
Three sealed and certified copies of the Board should be returned to the Contracts and

RECOMMENDED ACTION:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment &Human Services Director, or designee, to EXECUTE a
contract with IKON BSS West, Inc. for an Automated Case Management and Imaging System in the amount up
to $1,300,000 for the period April 1, 2005 through May 31, 2006. (#21-349-0)
FINANCIAL, IMPACT:
$1,3009000 100%Administrative Overhead, 20% County, 40% State, 40%Federal
BACKGROUND:
The proposed contract is the result of the open bid process, Request for Proposal #1080, released December 20,
2004. EHSD is in need of a process to automate existing paper case records to support business process
changes to maximize staff resources and improve client services. In the current environment, there are
individual caseworkers servicing specific assigned caseloads, which can vary in number depending upon the
client programs enrollment. Caseloads can be as high as 450 case records with 100-150 document pages per
case. The manual process for retrieval and update of case file information is labor intensive.
Currently each employee is responsible for individual case records from start to finish. Records are initiated
when a client utilizes the walk-in to scheduled appointments in District offices or makes contact by phone to a
specific person or a specific program work group, such as, Medical Intake Unit. EHSD is planning
implementation of a group of consolidated Client Service Centers for each of the major social services
programs, such as, Medical, Food Stamps, CalWORKS, etc.
The goal is to develop an operating system that will provide access to client case records by all caseworkers in
the Client Service Centers. The implementation of an automated case pooling system will provide the
framework for EHSD to move ahead with the Client Call Centers.
The cost of the automated case management and imaging system will be recovered through the increase in staff
efficiency and the reduction in costs currently associated with record maintenance and service delivery.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment and Human Services Director, or designee, to EXECUTE a
contract with the Pro-Sery Agency for termination of parental rights process services in the amount of$85,000
for the period April 1, 2005 through March 31, 2006. (#21-351-0)
FINANCIAL. IMPACT:
$855000 100% County
BACCKGROUND:
The proposed contractor was selected by the open bid process, Request for Information (RFI) #231 for the
termination of parental rights hearing process services. The Court sets Section 366.2, permanent plan for
termination of parental rights hearing dates. Process service must be made to the parent(s)prior to the hearing
date. The law requires parents be served to preserve termination of parental rights and to protect reversal by the
State Court of Appeals.
Service must be made within the Court timeframe and can require multiple attempts by the process server
agency as the parent may difficult to contact, evade service, reside out'of state, be homeless, or incarcerated. If
service cannot be accomplished, the process server must provide a written statement providing detailed
documentation of the investigation and attempted service to be filed with the Court.
The Court may, also, order personal service of other documents concerning other juvenile dependency matters,
such as subpoenas and restraining orders, requiring the services of a process service agency.
Selection was based upon experience, knowledge of juvenile dependency and parental rights termination, and
the ability to deliver service. Pro-Sery has demonstrated the ability to success ly de ' services and meet the
needs of county agencies since 1996.
