Commissioners told county council approved full‑time RN for clinic; job description will add preparedness duties
Summary
County health staff reported that the county council approved adding a full‑time registered nurse to the health clinic; the health director said she will revise the job description to include preparedness duties and return it to commissioners next week for approval.
Shannon, a county health staff member, told the commissioners that the county council approved a recommendation to add a full‑time registered nurse position at the county health clinic. Shannon said she and other health staff plan to fold preparedness duties into the new position and that she will update the job description and send it to the commissioners for review.
Shannon said the position will be created from currently unfilled positions and that no current employees will be displaced by the change. "So based on conversation that I've had with Holly and Jessica right before I left for time off, we're gonna add the preparedness duties into that," Shannon said. She told the board she will provide the updated job description for commissioner review the following week.
Ending: Commissioners indicated they would review the updated job description when presented; no formal county commissioner vote on the job description was recorded at the meeting because the council had already voted and Shannon said she would return with the updated description for commissioner action.
