Lot 2: Reablement Services

The Corporation will appoint a provider organisation who will manage and deliver the Reablement Service. This will be based on the current and historical usage of the Reablement. Reablement works with adults who have left hospital or are recovering from a recent illness or injury, providing short-term, intensive support to help with everyday tasks. It also works to restore the skills, confidence, and independence that the service user may have lost. The service is delivered in the service user's home and focuses on helping them to achieve everyday tasks so independence, health and wellbeing aren't affected in the long term. The reablement offer from the City is for all adult service users coming out of hospital with reablement potential. The provider will be expected to offer a reablement service, through an agreed programme of home care support, working in partnership with the Corporation's Adult Social Care Team. This will include weekly/regular updates and handover meetings and delivering tasks in the support plan with a view to maximising independence and, where possible, ceasing delivery within six weeks and/or facilitating a move to a longer term care package. The provider will demonstrate they have staff with the knowledge and experience of reablement focused care who can deliver and/or coordinate the delivery of that care. And that such support will be made available within 24 hours' notice from the point of contact by a social worker or hospital. The duration of the contract is 36 months, subject to the right of the City (at its sole discretion) to exercise its right to extend the contract by up to a further 24 months. The maximum length of the contract is therefore 60 months subject to performance. The estimated total value of the contract is also stated in II.1.5) and II.2.6) of this notice and is for the entire duration, i.e. including the optional extensions
