They are CQC registered and meet the requirements of the NHS England Specialised Tier 4 Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Intensive Care Unit service (170023/S - Tier 4 CAMHs Psychiatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU)) and Low Secure Inpatient (170024/S - Tier 4 CAMHs Low Secure Inpatient Service Unit (LSU)) service specifications. The PICU provides a specialist secure ward delivering short-term intensive care for those young people who are suffering with mental illness. This cohort of young people require a higher staffing ratio and less patient population to receive intensive support to aid their recovery. The low secure inpatient unit services (LSU) without NG tube feeding provides a specialist secure ward providing a longer term pathway within the inpatient setting. The service provides stability and aids recovery through therapeutic, medical and social interventions. This setting is able to manage our higher risk cohort of young people who outstrip what can be offered within a GAU. The contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award a contract to an existing provider following the PSR direct award process C. Approximate Lifetime Value of the Contract: PS700,000 which is indicative, as all admissions are on a cost per case basis, including any exceptional packages of care. The Service is intended to be provided from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2027.",
