The Cashman Isolation-Quarantine Complex, which is set to open this week, is hiring staff to help serve the homeless.

The city of Las Vegas and Clark County said in a joint statement that they are looking for “qualified medical staff, health care para-professionals and support personnel” for temporary positions at the 24-hour facility. Training and operations are scheduled to begin Wednesday, according to the statement.
