Provider Selection Regime Intention to award a contract to an existing provider following the direct award process C.
Existing 10 bed Block Purchase.
Adult and Older Adult Acute inpatient Mental Health beds provide a bed-based, specialised assessment and treatment service for individuals who require an admission for the treatment of an acute mental illness for whom a community service is not a viable option and who have been assessed as requiring admission following a gatekeeping assessment. The majority of people will be formal admissions under the Mental Health Act.
The service will be delivered using therapeutic and evidence-based recovery principles.
The service will:
Offer assessment and treatment within a setting that respects individual rights and allows assessment and treatment to occur in the least restrictive manner possible.
Provide a standard of treatment and care that respects a person’s right to privacy and dignity, ensuring a safe and therapeutic environment for those at the most acute and vulnerable stage of illness.
Include the views of the service user and relevant carers in assessments, treatment/care plans, risk management plans, and discharge planning arrangements.
Co-produce care plans with the service users, carers/family/friends (as the service user wishes), promoting self-management approaches within the inpatient setting.
Focus on enabling the service user to return to the community as soon as possible, prioritizing what is needed for a safe discharge from the point of admission.
Adhere to processes driven by the principles of the SAFER bundle for patient flow, including the agreed Predicted Date of Discharge and Clinical Criteria for Discharge.
