Bonus coming to child nutrition staff in 2022

Bonus coming to child nutrition staff in 2022 – Laurinburg Exchange

LAURINBURG — Scotland County Schools Child Nutrition staff will be seeing a bonus in 2022.

During Monday night’s Board of Education meeting, Richard Jacobs Director of Child Nutrition spoke to the board about the incentive, which will help retain and recruit child nutrition staff.

“We have our ESSER2 School Nutrition PRC174 fund and those are funds are to be used for the retention and recruitment of child nutrition employees,” Jacobs said. “The total funds is $38,965 and what we’re requesting of the board this evening is to be able to use those funds as an end of the year bonus to each child nutrition employee.”

The bonus would be around $500 and given to all employees — full and part-time — in May.

“It currently totals all the employees we have now but we’re always looking for new employees,” Jacobs said. “So we would cover any additional employees with child nutrition funds.

Board Attorney Stephen Rawson added the board should add a date that the employees need to still be employed in order to receive the bonus to maintain the retention. However, Jacobs added it was already in the piece stating that the money would go to any of the employees that were still working with the school system at the end of the year.

Superintendent Takeda LeGrand suggested an addition to the writing that to receive the bonus the employees must be employed by mid-April but the administration will come up with a specific time frame.

“We need to keep doing these things to let them know that we appreciate all that extra effort they’re putting in during this crisis that we’re in,” said Board Chair Rick Singletary. “I just want to say hats off to your department as a whole … you’re second to none.”

The board unanimously approved the bonuses.

Dr. Alejandro Cravioto, the committee’s chair, said that people with compromised immune systems “need a third dose as an additional priming process so that they’re fully protected.” The officials also recommended a third vaccine ...

How health care workers went from ‘heroes to villains’ – NBC News

Dr. Sheryl Recinos’ patient refused to accept her diagnosis of Covid-19. Her cough was because of Recinos’ perfume, the patient insisted, certain that her positive Covid-19 test could not be correct. Recinos, a family medicine hospitalist in California, was not wearing perfume. The test result, Recinos told her patient, was accurate. The interaction, in summer 2020, was an outlier at the time. But in recent months, such conversations have become more common. Recinos has treated people who, two weeks into hospital stays for Covid-related breathing struggles, still do not believe they have the coronavirus. She has had patients who have questioned her judgment, patients who have demanded to be given the same medications that former President Donald Trump received when he had Covid and family members of patients who have screamed at her for something as simple as giving their loved ones oxygen, a necessary treatment that they argue is doing more harm than good. “It’s baffling. I’...
