Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee (Jeff Smith, MD) to execute on behalf
of the County, Contract #26-213-21 with KG1, Inc., dba Key Temps, a corporation, in an amount not to

Medical Center and Contra Costa Health Centers, for the period from January 1, 2007 through December
31, 2007.

This Contract is funded 100%by Enterprise I Budget.
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(S):
For several years, the County has contracted with registries to provide temporary medical professionals to
assist Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health Centers during peak loads,
temporary absences, and emergency situations. There is a nationwide nursing and healthcare staff
shortage, and in spite of persistent efforts to recruit nurses and other healthcare staff, the Department has
experienced great difficulty in filling any vacant positions. Therefore, the Department has had to rely
heavily on the registry services in order to provide quality-nursing care for patients.
On January 24, 2006, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-213-18, (as amended by Contract
Amendment Agreement #26-213-20), with KGI Inc., dba Key Temps, for the period from January 1, 2006
through December 31, 2006, for the provision of temporary Registered Dental Assistant services at Contra
Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health Centers, during staff absences and vacancies.
Approval of Contract #26-213-21 will allow the Contractor to continue providing services through
December 31, 2007.
