REPORT: INSTRUCTIONAL AIDE II - SPECIAL

VI.

22.

OTHER

Ms. Rosemarie Salcedo, addressed the Commission to ask for EDUCATION CLASS DESCRIPTION DUTIES clarification on the words “assists” and “performs” when

used to describe the class description duties for Instructional Aide II – Special Education (IA II – Sp. Ed.).

She requested a B rating or stipend be given to IA II – Sp. Ed. employees who are performing distasteful duties and/or medical procedures. She is concerned that employees who have been in their position for several years and have not been expected to perform those duties until recently, are now being asked to perform duties they are not comfortable with. Ms. Salcedo requested additional training related to medical procedures, for IA II – Sp. Ed. employees.

Ms. Ford, Vice Chair, referenced the statement in the class description, “Assists students with personal physical needs…”, which infers that employees will be assisting students, not assisting teachers or nurses. Ms. Ford clarified that Ms. Salcedo would prefer the verbiage on the class description to include “assists and/or performs” in order to clarify the specific expectation.

Ms. Diane Ortiz, Instruction Aide II – Special Education, believes there is a distinct difference between the words assists and performs, and clarified that IA II – Sp. Ed. employees are trained by the nurse, to be an extension of the nurse, to perform specialized duties for students, and not everyone can do them. They are expected to perform these duties under the direction of a nurse, which needs to be made clear on the class description.

She requested that the salary range for IA II – Sp. Ed. be raised from B-18 to B-20, in order to be closely aligned with the Health Care Assistant salary range of B-21. In addition, she requested that the salary range for the IA II – Sp. Ed. Bilingual, be raised from B-19 to B-21, in order to be in alignment with the IA II –Sp. Ed. Hearing Impaired, as both positions require use of a second language.

Ms. Perez, Commissioner, was disappointed with the results of the report and agreed with Ms. Ortiz that the employees who are performing these duties should be compensated since not everyone can or will perform them. She suggested that the Commissioners visit the Special Education sites.

Ms. Ford agreed that the class description should to be changed to clarify two different types of duties. 1) Assist students with personal physical needs, 2) Under the direction of a nurse, perform minor medical procedures for students.

Page 11: PERSONNEL COMMISSION - hlpusdjobs.org · worked closely with Personnel Commission to ensure that the Bus Driver performance exam is a structured exam, designed to be in compliance

Page 6 of 6

Ms. Ford commended Ms. Ortiz for her patience and continuing to bring this matter to the Commission. She expressed her concern for the safety of the students, and the need for proper training for employees. Her recommendation is for a separate class description or a salary differential in order to compensate individuals who are performing duties related to minor medical procedures.

Ms. Ford recommended that this subject be included on the agenda for the joint meeting between the Board of Education and the Personnel Commission.

Ms. Avila agreed with both Ms. Perez and Ms. Ford, and requested that this subject be added to the joint meeting agenda, along with the School Office Manager classification, for discussion with the Board of Education.

REPORT: ISTRUCTIONAL AIDE II- SPECIAL EDUCATION

CONTINUED DISCUSSION

Report Date: September 13, 2016

I. Discussion Item

At the August 9, 2016 Personnel Commission meeting, the review of the Instructional

Aide II- Special Education classification was reported and it was recommended that no

change of classification was needed based on the information reviewed. During the

meeting and discussion, it was revealed that additional duties may be performed by the

Instructional Aide II- Special Education which would indicate the need for reclassification

or appropriate pay for additional services rendered. PC staff will need a continuance to

conduct additional interviews and observations and determine all duties being

performed.

II. Background and Analysis

On August 9, 2016 new information was provided to the Personnel Commission staff regarding the duties some Instructional Aide II- Special Education were performing, the conditions of the work environment, and the training that was being provided. The 2016-2017 school year began a day earlier and the number of students needing specialized service (as defined later in this report) was not known. The employees present at the Personnel Commission meeting described in detail the minor medical procedures they were performing such as tracheostomy care, gastrostomy tube feeding and care, catherization care, colostomy care, oxygen observation and the process of administering Diastat for severe seizure disorder.

In reviewing the special needs student population for the current school year, there are approximately 39 students needing G-tube assistance at 11 sites, 3 students needing suctioning assistance at 3 sites, 9 students needing catheterizing assistance at 9 sites and 4 students needing Diastat during a seizure at 4 sites. The distribution of work varies based on the school site and staff schedule. In some cases the Nurse is the primary for catheterization and Diastat administration with a Health Care Assistant serving as the back-up when available. At other sites the Health Care Assistant is the primary for both catheterization and Diastat administration with the Instructional Aide II serving as back up for catheterization only. In some cases the Instructional Aide II is the primary for G-tube feeding, as the nurse and Heath Care Assistant tend to special needs students needing more invasive procedures and other emergencies as needed.

III. Additional Interviews and Observations

Staff has observed and interviewed personnel from Sunset and Special Education

Department Administration. Additional observations and interviews are planned for

Stimson, Lassalette, Wilson, Palm Canyon and Grandview. Upon the completion of

interviews and observations an additional report will follow.
