We are seeing large increases in work volume due to the <br />high rates of booking. Secondly, and more important, you are keeping the <br />inmates with medical conditions in Concord and housing the more healthy <br />inmates elsewhere. While we agree that this is the right strategy, it does cause <br />us to add many inmates to our workload due to adverse selection, and thus we <br />have more sick inmates in the population of 200 than we would otherwise, and <br />definitely more than we have had in past years. <br /> <br />We are proposing to add a full-time LPN nurse to the staff to work the shifts that <br />are most effected by the higher volume, The schedule will be determined by the <br />workload, and may include weekend shifts. However, it is our plan to have the <br />position cover five shifts per week of eight hours each shift. <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />Our cost for this position, including benefits, will be $44,700 annually. We <br />propose to bill this on a monthly basis, adding $3,725 to our monthly base price <br />to be effective on the date we actually have the new position filled and working. <br /> <br />We would like to move on hiring this new nurse as soon as possible. If you want <br />to discuss these terms, you can reach me at (704) 583-9515 or mobile at (704) <br />589-9859. <br /> <br />We will wait to hear from you. <br /> <br />~. rely, <br />(~ d~~ <br /> <br />Je rey .
