This is a contract award notice for an Independent Living Service in Shropshire
Actions will include delivering appropriate health and care services, and key to this taking primary preventative action and support for those on waiting lists, which will involve those pre and post intervention. In addition, the Council’s Corporate Plan priorities include ‘Care for those in need at any age’ and ‘More people with a suitable home’ which means that people should be enabled to be as independent as they can be in a home suitable for their needs. The availability of an Independent Living Centre service will support these priorities through helping to increase the availability and use of aids and adaptations through promotion and signposting, as well as its core activity of undertaking occupational therapy assessments, or ‘consultations’, for adaptations and equipment.
The successful bidder will help the Council to achieve these aims through the following elements:
1.Provision of a Core Independent Living Centre Service
2.Provision of an Independent Living Worker/Facilitator service to provide rapid and intensive support and practical assistance for people with complex ‘independent living’ needs
Funding for this contract is capped at £293,500 per annum (Elements 1 and 2 aggregated) although up to an additional £30,000 per annum may be made available to expand Element 2 at the discretion of the Council.
