Item Text

8. AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT WITH HONORHEALTH FOR MEDICAL-FORENSIC EXAMINATIONS Approve Amendment No. 2 to the agreement with HonorHealth, also known as Scottsdale Healthcare Hospitals for Domestic Violence Strangulation examinations. In accordance with the terms of the agreement, this amendment extends the termination date until June 30, 2017. This agreement was first approved by the Board of Supervisors January 9, 2013 under Agenda C-19-13-020-3-00. All other terms remain in effect unless otherwise extended, or amended. Authorize the Chairman to sign any and all documents related to this action. The Board of Supervisors has previously approved agreements of this nature under the Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) program since 1999 (C-19-05-020-1-00) and recently the Forensic Nurse Examiner Program (FNE) for Domestic Violence Strangulation since 2011 (C-19-12-026-3-00). These two agreements were consolidated in 2013 into one agreement for convenience of Maricopa County and HonorHealth. This agreement is for professional investigative services for law enforcement purposes and is exempt from the Maricopa County Procurement Code under MC1-102-B. Continuance of this agreement is beneficial for the people of Maricopa County, especially those victimized through sexual assault and domestic violence where strangulation is involved. (C-19-13-020-3-02)
