Slide number 36 HD into two part-time primary care clinician positions. This is slide 36 HD and 34 HD. Go ahead. Go ahead, please. I'm going to be changing these back mat. We changed these split-ups and making full time, making part time until it's foreign judge and commissioners. So you see, I think some of the back up there in my email to Amy, really give some context and I'm going to answer your question, but I need to give just a little context. The context is Dr. Burton converted a part time into a full time. And then he offered the position right before his departure to Dr. Ocrum part time into a full time. Right. And then he offered the position right before his departure to Dr. Ocrum, who is a great physician, a local infectious disease doctor. And we definitely want to retain him. The problem was he took that position, believing it was going to be a part time position, as he runs a practice in town. So that's the issue. We want to preserve him. That is part time. I have a clinician who wants to go to part time So this was a convenient way to basically keep both individuals Preserve that function and hire a full-time Through the winner or maybe early spring and so I Am going to want to hire a full-time physician which was the course intent when you approve that full-time with Dr. Burton's budget. I'm going to want to do that, but that's going to be a little later because that's going to take some time. In the meantime, I will preserve the two people who want to stay, but again, they wanted the part-time positions. So we're going to have, in the end, it's the same number of slots. It will have five. But we're just arranging that to fit our current needs. And again, to rectify what what happened was and this was this was my ignorance with the budget process. When Dr. Burton asked for that slot, the full time conversion, I didn't know that that was automatic So I thought we had some time to move some pieces around but that happened at budget at budget year beginning Well that happened with the person who didn't want a full-time job So he's converted to full-time in technical terms. We didn't we didn't pay that but That just that was in the transition between Dr. Burton and myself. I think that got a little lost in the shuffle. So when he hired on, did he not know he was hired on for full time, maybe? He did not and I didn't know that he was going to convert. Amy? I was not part of the conversations with him so I don't know if he, you know, I can't offer any more than Matt's offer. I guess my concern is is that we get people that want to work for us and then they decide that they decide that they only want to work by time. And for me, you know, someone else could have had the job. He didn't want it full time. And so that's my concern. And this is not the first time. This is your first time. But this is not the first time that it's happened. And I have some problems with it. Understand. I'm kind of difficult to find somebody else the full time too. Yeah. Dr. Ackrom is a extremely well-qualified infectious disease doctor. And I think they're fairly difficult to get old. I'm not questioning his qualifications. Not too many around. I'm not familiar with him, but I'm not questioning his qualifications. I'm not authorized to do that. Sure. And really, in my, I had a conversation with Dr. Akram again. That conversation for his hire was prior to me. And so I had the conversation with him, did Dr. Burton mention the conversion to full time and he said, ah, I don't have time for a full time job. I wanted the part time designation, I wanted to come and help out. So that was some confusion I think in the hiring process. I think the intent in Dr. Burton's intent was really good, which is to add a full-time physician. This move lays the groundwork for that intent that was approved in the budget by the court. So this is sort of the first step to undo that unwanted conversion by the employee, and then provide us with a full time position moving forward after we garnered some savings in this budget fiscal cycle. So I think we're going to end up where we all anticipated the personnel to fill those slots I think is going a little differently than we had thought. Do we have any other questions that we have a motion? Motion by Commissioner Marchant. Seconded by Commissioner Eads. Hearing no further questions, all in favor please say aye. Aye.
