Notice Title

Mental Health Recovery

Notice Description

The Council is seeking applications from experienced providers with the capability and capacity to deliver community mental health care and support in Rotherham. A review of current mental health care and support provision in Rotherham indicates the need to improve the community service model to one which offers mental health recovery support personalised social care, with increased choice and control for people living with mental ill-health. This new care and support model has been co-produced in partnership with people accessing services and their supporting professionals to inform the service design. Such services will support people to achieve independent living skills, move towards, and sustain, independent living in the communities in which they live.

Lot Information

Supported Living - Accommodation Based Service

The FPS will comprise of a number of separate Lots. Each Lot will specify a community service (i.e., supported living accommodation-based services, day opportunities) with the principle of mental health recovery at its core. Initially the Council is seeking applications for Lot 1 - Supported Living - Accommodation Based. There will be no limit to the number of providers who can be appointed to any Lot within the FPS. All successful applicants appointed to any Lot will automatically be added to Lot Z - Miscellaneous Contracts Relating to Mental Health Recovery Services and will have the opportunity to take part in procurement activity which is not specifically linked to a particular Lot that already exists. Applicants are not required to submit an application for this Lot. The Council will update the application documentation as and when new Lots are added. Applicants will be able to access the application documentation at any point via YORtender. The Council will download applications and undertake evaluation activity in what will be known as rounds, this evaluation process and frequency will be subject to the applications received and capacity and resource within the team, as a maximum it is envisaged applications will be evaluated every 6 months or sooner at the Council's discretion. Applicants must note this process seeks to appoint providers to the FPS only and carries no guarantee of any work awarded, commitment of expenditure, or volumes of activity with the appointed provider upon appointment. Any award of work will be subject to the completion of a direct award or further competition process. Supported living is typically defined as housing where support and/or care services are provided to help people to live as independently as possible. Supported living provides people with individual tenancies. This means that they have a home of their own and will benefit from a greater level of autonomy as far as their environment is concerned (Source: Social Care Institute of Excellence). The accommodation is often shared but can be single household and staff are shared across a number of people in the scheme with additional 1:1 support provided for individuals, based on their assessed eligible needs. Supported living is an alternative to institutional care for people living with mental ill-health and offers more choice, control, rights, and independence which is the primary motivation for proposing adoption of this model. Supported living offers a high level of support for people for whom residential care would usually be the only viable alternative. The strategic drivers to develop supported living include: * reducing the use of high cost and long-term residential care, * its strong preventative focus as it helps people to develop and maintain their independence in the longer term with links to, for example, training, employment, and volunteering. Additional information: The FPS will be established on the basis of an initial 5-year period; the system may continue beyond this date subject to further Cabinet approval, therefore the end date specified at II2.7 is provided as an indication only.
