Interpreter Stipend


Good afternoon,

I would like to discuss the option of paying a monthly stipend to staff who as a part of their work provide interpreter services.  I think this will help us eliminate the need to fill the interpreter position.  I know that the Health Dept. also has an interpreter for some circumstances.  This stipend would serve two purposes: 1. Help keep at Alexander County a couple of our Adult Medicaid staff members (without developing a separate job description), 2. Recognize this additional skill provided. I would like to implement this, similar to the on call stipend for CPS supervisors. Is this possible? What will be required?
