Summary of the contracting process

NHS Humber and North Yorkshire Integrated Care Board commissioned intermediate care bed provision in Pocklington, delivered within a care home managed by Pocklington Group Practice. The service is community health care for people needing “step up” support during ill-health or “step down” support after treatment. It includes ongoing assessment of future care and support needs, reablement to maximise or restore independence, therapeutic interventions to build confidence with mobility and self-care, and nursing and medical care and review. The model is intended to support recovery and rehabilitation while helping people receive care closer to home. The requirement falls within community health services and is located in Pocklington, East Riding of Yorkshire.

The process has been awarded and the contract is active. NHS Humber and North Yorkshire Integrated Care Board used a direct award without prior publication of a competition under Process C of the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. The contract was signed on 25 July 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. Its estimated lifetime value is £135,000. Paragon Healthcare York Limited was selected as the supplier. The published assessment considered the existing provider’s satisfactory performance, likely ability to meet the new contract and the fact that the proposed arrangements were not changing considerably. The wider stated criteria weighted quality and innovation at 35%, integration and sustainability at 25%, value at 20%, and access, health inequalities and social value at 10% each.

This procurement indicates demand for care providers able to operate intermediate care beds in a care-home setting and support an integrated local health and care model. A credible competitor would need to provide safe, patient-centred assessment, reablement and recovery support, with nursing intervention and access to medical review. Practical capability should include therapeutic support for mobility and self-care, care planning that responds to changing needs, and arrangements that help people regain independence or move towards their next stage of care. Providers should also be able to demonstrate clinical governance, measurable outcomes, service improvement and effective collaboration with the Pocklington Integrated Care Hub. Evidence of value for money, equitable access, local social value and sustainable delivery would support future competition.
