Notice Title

Care Home Data Platform SBRI Innovation Foundation Challenge: Technical Feasibility

Notice Description

This is a Research and Development Pre Commercial Procurement, Small Business Research Initiative (SBRI,) competition funded by Scottish Government, the Chief Scientific Office (CSO) and the Data Lab Innovation Centre and hosted by the Health Innovation South East Scotland (HISES) Innovation Test Bed. The Innovation Foundation Challenge will determine how data collected about each individual resident by care homes and care home staff can be used to create a holistic digital picture of their health, wellbeing and care needs. We want to know the current capabilities of care home data to do this alone and when combined with other electronic health and social care records, that are held by other health and social care providers, for example the NHS, GPs/Primary care and Local Authorities/Health and Social Care Partnerships.

The main place of performance will be NHS Lothian; Care Homes and Health & Social Care Partnerships within this area. In phase 1 of this competition, we would particularly welcome bids from single companies or bids that bring together a consortium of sectorial specialists to work together to provide a solution to the Challenge set. Required outputs from Phase 1 are: 1.An accessible technical feasibility demonstration, using currently available Scottish care home data, on its own and also in combination with other Scottish health and social care datasets of: i. a real or near real-time holistic record of an individual resident's health, wellbeing and care needs; and ii. the visualisation of a trajectory of changes (over time) in an individual resident's health, well-being and care needs. 2. A report which includes information on: i. existing technical platforms that collect and present care home data and expert opinion on technical feasibility given the different ways in which data are collected and recorded in care homes; ii. the scoping of existing products in the sector to ensure that such a solution does not already exist, or whether an existing product could be adapted to address the challenge; iii. identified gaps, challenges and inconsistencies in the current Scottish care home data collected, with recommendations and advice; and iv. options for inclusion of Scottish health and social care records within the holistic digital picture, and how these to add value to the tools developed above or tools for inclusion in a future innovation roadmap for the care home sector in Scotland. 3. Within the context of your specific solution and vision for Scottish care homes, an initial assessment of the potential for decision support tools, AI, risk stratification and data driven innovation, with recommendations for next steps in meeting the future health and wellbeing needs of care home residents in Scotland. This should include your plans for Phase 2, should you be invited to apply, and take into account the different care homes sectors (i.e. private, charity, local authority) and current data management systems used in these care homes. It is anticipated that the feasibility study of R&D for each project will last for up to 3 months. We are expecting to fund up to 5 projects in this phase and only applicants who complete phase 1 can proceed to phase 2.. A maximum of 5 applicants will be taken on in this first Phase of the SBRI. Contracts will be between The National Waiting Times Centre Board (also known as the Golden Jubilee Foundation and winning participants.
