Notice Title

HOPES - Merseycare (Delivery & Secondment)

Notice Description

This is a direct award to Merseycare Foundation Trust to allow for the delivery of the HOPES model. This is a clinical model for patients with complex needs and is exclusive to Merseycare, who will share their model with NHS organisations and they are ready to deliver at scale. This is a 3 year project for Merseycare delivery and secondment costs for staff across provider collaboratives, and a specific trauma focussed approach to working with families (family trauma model). This programme will address the lack of clinical skills and resource across NHS led provider collaboratives to work with autistic individuals and individuals with a learning disability who are segregated in NHS funded mental health inpatient provision.
