MINUTES ORANGE COUNTY BOARD OF HEALTH March 25, 2009 Board of Health Minutes Transcription completed by Anne Miles Cassell 3 March 25, 2009 been deemed successful. Addendum A outlines the expectations of each party in this agreement. The cost remains the same ($1000) as does the payment arrangement. C. Contract Renewal with Dr. Bob Dupuis for Pharmacy Services The issuance of pharmaceuticals through our clinics or during epidemics/disasters necessitates the services of a registered pharmacist. Robert Dupuis, Pharm D., a Clinical Associate Professor in the Division of Pharmacy Practice at the UNC School of Pharmacy, has served as our Pharmacist for the past seven years. He has fulfilled his responsibilities well and is interested in continuing to serve in this capacity. There are no changes in the 09-10 Pharmacy Contract. It does not include a cost increase. The total amount of the contract remains at $12,036 per year. D. Contract Renewal with Chapel Hill Training and Outreach for Head Start Social Worker II Position The Head Start contract represents a collaborative relationship to provide family service coordination services to families eligible for and enrolled in Orange County Head Start and Orange County Health Department’s Child Service Coordination Program. The collaboration for one social worker position presents parents with one unified program case coordinator who provides regular contacts to the family in order to identify and follow-up on child and family needs. The Family Service Coordinator supports the development of family self- sufficiency and promotes skill development in the areas of problem solving, decision making and accessing needed health and human services. The Contract has been in existence since 1999 and is renewed annually. Changes in the contract from 2008 include identification of new personnel in key positions and a 2.8% increase in payment to OCHD, from $58,500 to $60,120 per year for the services of a Social Worker II. The contract is in effect from January 1, 2009 to December 31, 2009. E. Contract Renewal with Head Start for Dental Services In 2003, Chapel Hill Training and Outreach, Inc. approached the health department with a request to provide required dental screening and treatment services to all children enrolled in the Head Start Program located in Hillsborough. The first contract for services was developed and issued in the fall of 2003 and the program has worked well for both entities. Both parties wish to renew this contract for services for the coming fiscal year. The contract amount is reduced by mutual agreement to $8,000 per year since more of the children than planned have a private dentist providing care after the initial screening. F.
