This contract is specifically for commissioning care packages to support patient discharge during an unforeseen emergency, and it is regulated under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The procurement method followed was limited, executed without prior publication due to its urgency. This contract begins from August 2025 and is set to conclude by 31 March 2026, with a notable focus on risk management and maintaining the quality of care. The procurement has been classified as a 'completed' tender stage with AMG Nursing and Home Care Services selected as the supplier for the operation.
