ORANGE COUNTY <br />BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br />ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT <br />Meeting Date: February 17, 2004 <br />Action Ager~a <br />Item No. _~ <br />SUBJECT: Agreement Renewal with Respite Care Providers and the Department on Aging <br />DEPARTMENT: Aging <br />ATTACHMENT(S): <br />Sample Agreement <br />PUBLIC HEARING: (YIN) No <br />INFORMATION CONTACT: <br />Jerry Passmore, ext. 2009 <br />TELEPHONE NUMBERS: <br />Hillsborough 732-8181 <br />Chapel Hill 968-4501 <br />Durham 688-7331 <br />Mebane 336-227-2031 <br />PURPOSE: To seek authorization to renew agreements with respite care providers with the <br />Department on Aging for Fiscal Year 2003-2004.. <br />BACKGROUND: In the past, the Department on Aging has utilized a portion of its Eldercare <br />operating budget to purchase in-home respite service from local providers. This service places <br />a trained aide in the home of a frail alder adult in order to relieve the caregiver who is usually a <br />family member, The average allocation of service is six hours per week. <br />The Department's Fiscal Year 2003-04 budget includes more than $107,000 to be used for this <br />purpose. Approximately $90,000 of this amount is provided by the State Division of Aging <br />which reimburses 90% of the cast of providing the service. The funds will be used to purchase <br />mare than 7,800 hours of respite service for approximately 40 persons. <br />In order to maintain the flexibility necessary for successful service delivery, the County has <br />found it prudent to use several providers contingent upon their availability. Therefore, the Board <br />is being requested to authorize the Manager to sign agreements with three service provider <br />agencies. They are: <br />Arcadia <br />Home Health Solutions <br />Maxim (formerly Carefocus) <br />The County will continue to contract with qualified service providers pursuant to both State- <br />mandated requirements and the criteria established by the County, <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: Funding for the purchase of this service is included in the current <br />approved Department on Aging budget. The service cost will not exceed $14.25 per aide hour. <br />
