HHS staff to move to county timekeeping system; electronic medical record grant approved
Summary
Sawyer County Human Services deputies reported completing staff training on the county timekeeping system, approval of a partial grant for a new electronic medical record (EMR) system and an all-staff training half‑day set for June 4.
Carrie, deputy director for Human Services, told the Sawyer County Human Services Committee that 18 HHS staff completed a transition to the county-wide timekeeping system, TimeClock Plus, aligning HHS with county payroll processes.
She said the department applied for and received grant funding to cover implementation fees and part of a subscription for a new electronic medical record system to be implemented agency-wide. Carrie said the plan is to begin implementation within roughly three months after the contract is signed and that the grant will mainly cover implementation costs and a partial first-year subscription.
Committee members approved a request to close the agency at 11 a.m. on June 4 for an all-staff training half-day. A motion to approve the training day was made and seconded on the record and carried; no roll-call vote or individual names for mover/second were recorded in the discussion excerpt.
In other administrative notes, committee members were advised that an Adult Protective Services worker had been hired and would start work the following day.
These operational changes were presented as administrative updates; the committee did not adopt policy changes related to the systems rollout during the meeting.
