Isanti County approves WIC coordinator increase to 1.0 FTE and adds Public Health Nurse position
Summary
The board approved a recommendation to increase an existing WIC Coordinator from 0.8 to 1.0 FTE funded by the Foundational Public Health Responsibilities Grant and approved adding a 1.0 FTE Public Health Nurse for Family Home Visiting funded by grants and PMAP billing.
The county’s Personnel Committee recommended, and the board approved, changing the WIC Coordinator position from 0.8 full-time equivalent to 1.0 FTE and updating the job description to add supervisory duties. The minutes state funding will come from the Foundational Public Health Responsibilities Grant and the change will not alter benefit eligibility.
