Nursing Staff Services

The Chicago Transit Authority, a government authority located in Chicago, Illinois, is seeking a vendor to provide nursing staff services. The agency requires these services to support physically and mentally impaired geriatric residents at its facility. The selected vendor will supply Certified Nursing Assistants and Licensed Practical Nurses to deliver essential physical care and nursing assistance. The scope of work for Certified Nursing Assistants covers performing personal care services under general supervision. These duties include assisting residents with activities of daily living, feeding, bathing, personal hygiene, ambulation, transferring, repositioning, dressing, and elimination. Certified Nursing Assistants must also escort residents to appointments, take and record vital signs, prepare records, and perform treatment procedures directed by licensed nurses. Licensed Practical Nurses will independently perform a variety of practical nursing functions for physically and mentally ill residents on assigned units and shifts. These duties involve performing selected nursing functions that do not require the specialized knowledge and skill of a Registered Nurse. The agency requires all work to be performed onsite at the Chicago facility. Eligible bidders must be onshore organizations based solely in the United States. The agency is looking for proposals to determine the budget for this project. The source document does not specify evaluation criteria or key dates for this opportunity.
