Subject: Addition of Nursing Services
The Nursing Division of the Health Department would like to provide the
additional services listed below to the community with the fees as indicated.
PPD Services
PPD employee screening - $10.00
PPD training - $25.00 per hour
With the passage of new OSHA Regulations, long-term care and other
treatment facilities are now required to test all their employees for TB.
The Health Department would administer the PPD to employees and train
staff nurses at the different agencies to read these tests. We have
received requests from several facilities in the community to provide
this service.
Clinic Services
Blood sugar screening - $5.00
Colorectal screening - $4.00
Urinalysis dipstick - $1.00
TSH (thyroid screen) - $22.00
CBC - $7.00
PSA (prostate screening) - $30.00
We have received requests from community members for these services, most
of which would be offered in the rural clinics.

IUD $ -0- $87.00 $100.00 $120.00 $150.00
IUD insertion -0- 15.00 35.00 50.00 55.00
IUD removal -0- 6.00 12.00 16.00 18.00
IUDs have again been approved by the FDA as a birth control method, and
we would like to provide these services to clients. The fees for these
services would be charged on a sliding fee scale as are the other birth
control supplies provided by WCHD.
I recommend your approval of these additional services to be provided by the
Nursing Division.
