two.2.4) Description of the procurement
The aim of the service is to support people to return, and remain, at home following a stay in hospital by delivering 24/7 care in the person’s own home for an intensive short period (between 2 and 10 days). This should prevent, or delay, the admission into residential care and promote personalisation and independence. The service will be flexible and responsive to the support needs of the individual in the service, while being mindful of the short-term nature of this service. This period should allow future care / support requirements to be identified through a full assessment of care and support needs and for any new service required to be identified and delivered efficiently. Proactive early planning for move on from the service will be critical to enable flow through the service and onto other longer term support services, should they be required. This includes request for services such as assistive technology and planning with the individual, their families and carers to support the move to funded services, whether supported by the Council or not. The contract term is for two years with a potential extension to a third year dependant upon funding.
