SF 147 Wyoming House · 2019 General Session

Department of health facilities-contract employees.

This bill (SF 147) requires Wyoming's Department of Health to propose budget changes that reduce full-time and part-time staff at five specific state facilities - Wyoming Life Resource Center, Wyoming State Hospital, Wyoming Pioneer Home, Veterans' Home of Wyoming, and Wyoming Retirement Center - and increase the use of temporary contract employees instead. It mandates that the Department of Administration's budget division must base the health department's 2021-2022 budget on these recommendations. The policy directly affects staffing models at these facilities, shifting toward more flexible, short-term contracts for operational roles.
