The beds are also to be used as a step-up for people in the community to avoid hospital admission, long-term placement, as well as support crisis management. Pre-planned Respite will also be a focus for one of the beds.1.4 The Provider will provide care, support and accommodation in line with its CIW registration and a Pre-Placement Agreement with WCBC.
