Notice Description

Kent community health NHS foundation trust provides a range of community service interventions/treatments to patients in their own homes, this includes patients who due to health complications have restricted mobility, or are bed bound, preventing them from transferring safely from bed to chair or bed to bed.

This will enable delivery of the following requirements: - Transfer of patient from current bed to an alternative bed/mattress in same room - Transfer of patient to another room on the same floor - Transfer of patient to a different floor in their home Additional information: To express interest and participate in the tender, please register and apply via Atamis e-sourcing portal https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome.
