Memorandum
Date: May 24, 2022
To: The Honorable Lake County Board of Supervisors
From: Jen Baker, Deputy Director Health Services
Subject: Approve Request to waive 900-hour limit for Extra-Help Office Assistant, Marissa Davis
Executive Summary:
The Health Services Department is requesting approval to exceed the 900 hour extra help limit for Marissa Davis, Office Assistant. Her hours are not to exceed 960.
Marissa has worked additional hours this fiscal year providing onsite administrative front line support to ensure timely patient/client support, and phone coverage. Her additional hours this fiscal year were needed to cover the absence of full time staff normally assigned to these duties, but who needed to be reassigned to assist with the Health Department’s COVID-19 Crisis response efforts.
Health Services requests exceeding the 900 hour limit, due to a staffing shortage in this unit, so that the Department may continue to assist our patients/clients in a timely manner.
