two.1.4) Short description

Brighton & Hove City Council is seeking a provider(s) to deliver adult (18+) residential rehabilitation services to support drugs and alcohol recovery in the City. The Services are primarily targeted at those who are homeless or insecurely housed and will offer longer-term accommodation-based interventions. Accommodation costs will be met through clients' housing benefit (or otherwise self-funded). The services to be provided will include detoxification preparation and support (when necessary) through a recovery programme and finally independence and move-on. The Council recognises that one model of residential rehabilitation does not meet the needs of all users and that sometimes clients may need additional support and/or more than one period of residential rehabilitative in order to achieve abstinence and recovery. The division of the Services required into two separate lots reflects this position. Referrals to the services will be accepted from the Brighton and Hove Drug and Alcohol Recovery Service.

AWARDED CONTRACT

Residential rehabilitation service for drugs and alcohol in Brighton and Hove. In brief the service will comprise:

•Accommodation and high support for men and women undergoing a medically supervised detox programme or in preparation for longer term residential rehab for up to 3 months dependent on individual needs and progress (approximately 8 units of accommodation). Support workers will be on site 24 hours 7 days per week.

•Supported housing and a treatment and rehabilitation 'recovery' programme including relapse prevention of between 6 and 9 months (approximately 8 units of accommodation). Support workers will be on site during office hours and up to mid-evening. A 24 hour on-call service will operate out of hours.

•'Move-on' accommodation for clients who have achieved abstinence having completed an appropriate drug/alcohol treatment intervention. A comprehensive programme of re-settlement and aftercare enabling clients to re-integrate back into the community and lead a life free of alcohol, drugs and crime, for a maximum stay of 2 years (approximately 6 units of accommodation). Not all clients continue into move-on accommodation, instead choosing to move to band 3 or independent accommodation and they will be supported to do so. Support workers will be contactable by telephone during office hours Monday - Friday.

•The service model will be a cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) approach with therapeutic group work and a written recovery programme.

•The service will recognise that part of the cycle of change is the potential to lapse.

•The service will adopt a flexible approach to lapse being informed by the context and circumstances of the lapse and of how the client responds to the lapse.

•Eviction will remain an option for the service but in the first instance, non-punitive responses such as isolation from peers or a move back to detox support should be considered.

The target start date for the Contract is the 1st of April 2022. This may be adjusted if further competition is required.

The Contract will be for a period of three (3) years with an optional extension of a further (2) years. The estimated value listed in this notice is for the entire potential Contract period of five (5) years.
