Contract Amendment for Professional Staffing Services, UIC Medical Center, Chicago

(18) The chancellor at Chicago recommends the approval of an amendment to increase the obligation to Verd & Associates (Verd), Wilmette, contract for providing temporary professional staffing services for the Department of Nursing. The current contract is effective July 1, 1994, through June 30, 1995, and has an approved obligation amount of $129,000. The increase is due to the need to request additional temporary nursing personnel to staff the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) which has experienced a dramatic surge in patient volume. Verd has been able to provide the nurses required to work in this specialized area during this high volume period.

(The student advisory vote was: Aye, Mr. Didato-Castillo; absent, Mr. Rose.)

The agencies, under the contract, will provide temporary staffing services to fill in for vacancies, vacation, sick and maternity leave, and to provide more staffing when needed for new and/or existing programs. There is also a critical shortage of physical and occupational therapists across the country which makes it exceedingly
