18 052 Care At Home (Domiciliary Care)

DN337226

two.1.4) Short description
The Council has previously awarded agreements to a number of Providers to deliver Care at
Home Services (formerly known as domiciliary care), this is a voluntary ex ante transparency
(VEAT) notice being used to effectively extend the current agreements beyond their expiry dates. This is to ensure continuous operation of the providers during re-commissioning of this area, which
is necessary due to a shortfall in provision, when compared with market demand for services.
Providers will be expected to provide support to a full range of Service Users including those
with complex health needs and end of life support at a level set out within this specification.
As such, the Service is being jointly commissioned by Cheshire East Council, Eastern
Cheshire Clinical Commissioning Group and South Cheshire Clinical Commissioning Group;
known know as the ICB. The principle objective of the service is to enable Service Users to
remain in their own homes wherever possible, whilst preserving maximum independence,
minimising risks, achieving outcomes and promoting quality of life. Provision is expected to
complement and support informal carers where appropriate.
The Council are proposing to effectively extend current agreements by a period of 12 months until 3rd September 2024, with the anticipated additional spend for this being a total of 15,696,067 GBP
this contract value will be split across the lots and various providers, taking spend in this area from the original contract starts to approximately 81,881,100 GBP - this allows for some growth in the market and a fee increase, due to wage/cost increases.
