Notice Title

Care home services and care home redevelopment opportunities in Cornwall

Notice Description

Cornwall Council (the 'Council') is working to ensure that the available care home capacity meets the current and future demand for services. To date care homes have not been developed at the pace required to meet the increasing needs of the Cornish population both now and into the future and there is a significant gap emerging between need and the availability of supply, particularly for people living with dementia. One of a number of approaches the Council is taking to address this gap relates to the following two (2) Sites that the Council currently hold the freehold interest in: * Site 1 - Trefula Nursing Home, St Day, Redruth, Cornwall, TR16 5ET, and * Site 2 - Trengrouse, Trengrouse Way, Helston, Cornwall, TR13 8BA. The Council therefore wishes to procure one (1) Service Provider and award them the Council's Contract that will require the Service Provider to deliver the following services at the two Sites: 1) Purchase the freehold interest in the two (2) Sites from the Council through the Council's Land Contract(s) with restrictions to build and operate a new build older persons care home on each Site. 2) Undertake the operational management of the existing nursing care home at Site 1 - Trefula while the Service Provider develops Site 1 through an Operational Lease and the Trefula Existing Care Home Services Contract with the Council that will require the Service Provider to provide the provision of care services and dedicated access to the twenty-eight (28) nursing beds at the existing care home at Site 1 for Council placements (Guaranteed Beds) that must be priced either below or within the Council's fee methodology. 3) Secure funding, to enable the Service Provider to design, obtain planning permission, develop and construct a scheme on each of the two (2) Sites. As a minimum each scheme must include a new build older persons care home and key worker accommodation on each Site that meets the Council's requirements that provides accommodation that is fit for purpose, designed to modern standards and meets the Council's design principles for new build care homes, good practice for dementia friendly environments and any relevant CQC and legislative requirements, and 4) Following completion of the schemes, the Service Provider will maintain the ownership of and undertake the operational management of the scheme at each of the two (2) Sites, and enter into the Council's Care Home Contracts (Trefula Care Home Contract and Trengrouse Care Home Contract) that will require the Service Provider to provide: a) The provision of a care service at the two (2) new build older persons care home developed on each of the two (2) Sites, b) Dedicated access to a number of the Guaranteed Beds for local authority placements that must be priced below or within the Council's fee methodology, and c) The ability to spot purchase additional beds over and above the Guaranteed Beds at the two (2) new build older persons care homes developed on the Site(s).
