THE VACANCIES The current vacancies for this position are located in the Social Services Agency and in thefollowing programs of the Public Health Department; Adult Protective Services, Nurse Family Partnership, Nursing Administration, and Tuberculosis Control (TB). However, the eligible list resulting from this recruitment may be used to fill future vacancies in other program areas. SPECIAL REQUIREMENT: In addition to meeting the minimum qualifications below, these positions require possession of a current and valid California Public Health Nursing (PHN) certificate issued by the California Board of Registered Nursing. ALAMEDA COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH NURSES Public Health Nurses (PHNs) work as part of multidisciplinary teams and are embedded inside well-funded comprehensive programs to ensure that our diverse, low-income, multi-stressed individuals, families, and communities are served in holistic ways. PHNs work in multiple programs/units as case managers, community engagement specialists, consultants, coordinators, educators, health screeners, inspectors, investigators, and vaccinators, in the areas of Children’s Medical Services, Central Referral and Intake, Chronic Disease, Communicable Disease, Community Engagement, Immunization Assistance, Correctional Health, Maternal, Child and Adolescent Health, Nurse Education, Nurse Recruitment, Occupational Health, Older Adults and Public Health Emergency Preparedness and Response. The Public Health Department maintains a Memorandum of Understanding with the Alameda County Social Services Agency for the provision of PH Nursing services to clients in the Departments of Adult and Aging Services (Adult Protective Services, Public Conservator, Public Guardian, and In-Home Supportive Services) and Children and Family Services (Foster Care Assessment Center and the Medically Fragile and Services to Enhance Early Development Units). Descriptions of some of these program/units are specifically highlighted below: PROGRAM OVERVIEW Adult Protective Services (APS) and Foster Care PHNs provide nursing case management services to clients with complicated chronic medical conditions. These conditions often render the client vulnerable to ongoing abuse and neglect and at risk for additional medical emergencies, further traumatizing clients and creating cycles of recidivism. Casework may include home visits (to client's residence, hospital, board & care home, health clinic, day program or skilled nursing facility) to conduct an assessment, engagement of the client and client's informal and formal support system in accordance with the service plan of the APS Social Worker, which is designed to reduce or eliminate risk for the client. PHNs will provide health education to clients and their caregivers and/or family and will advocate on behalf of clients for access to required medical services. PHN Case Managers may recognize and coordinate care for varying stages of dementia and cognition; identifying and facilitating appropriate level of care, which could lead to out-of-home placement (such as skilled-nursing facilities, board and cares etc.); facilitating the enrollment process and care provider selection for In-Home Support Services (IHSS) or the selection of other care appropriate providers; and coordinating services, such as Meals-on-Wheels, Friendly Visitors, transportation services (i.e. Paratransit). Nurse Family Partnership Nurse-Family Partnership is a home visiting program that partners nurses with low income first-time moms residing primarily in Oakland, in order to improve birth outcomes, increase self-sufficiency and improve child development. Case management services begin in pregnancy and continue until the child reaches two years old. During that time, families receive health education and assessments, child development information and screenings and help with goal setting so that they can create better lives for their child and themselves. Nursing Administration The Nursing Administration Office sits inside of the Public Health Nursing Division and is comprised of the Central Intake and Referral Unit, Education and Professional Development Unit, Public Health Nurse Recruitment and Retention Unit, Quality Improvement and Nurse Informatics Units, and Occupational Health Unit. Public Health Nurses (PHNs) as analysts, consultants, coordinators, educators, improvement specialists, and recruiters work as part of multi-disciplinary teams in the Nursing Administration Office to advance and strengthen the role, function, and development of PH Nursing services. Staff in the Nursing Administration Office collaborate with internal and external partners in the development of policy and professional nursing standards of care that support the health of Alameda County residents.
