Police custody healthcare (governed by PACE) operates within all custody suites within Humberside Police, North Yorkshire Police, South Yorkshire Police and West Yorkshire Police, to provide a clinical assessment of a Service User's fitness for detention, interview, charge or release as required /requested by the police, as well as forensic healthcare such as taking samples for evidence purposes. This is largely driven by the custody risk assessment and safeguarding processess. It should be noted that that this healthcare is within the secure estate of a police custody suite/unit. As such the medical healthcare is ancillary to the role the police have of investigating crime. In this respect the Police are strictly governed by legislation in particular the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 and it Code of Practise. This places a significant responsibility on the Custody officer (usually a Police Sergeant) who is responsible for ensuring the legal process is discharged and has a strict duty of care to all detainees. This will mean their close involvement in decisions to refer for medical assissment and a duty to liaise and confer with Healthcare professionals in order to cary out that duty. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/920378b7-b7bf-457d-a7eb-ac8e706a191d | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 9 Aug 2017 | | Submission deadline | 7 Sep 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 25 Mar 2018 - 31 Mar 2025 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £51,100,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | YORKSHIRE AND HUMBER POLICE PROCUREMENT (Y&HPP) | | Locality | SHEFFIELD | | Post town | Sheffield | | Postcode | S9 2EH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE3 South Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE32 Sheffield | | Local authority | Sheffield | | Electoral ward | Darnall | | Westminster constituency | Sheffield South East | | Delivery location | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services - 85100000 - Health services - 85120000 - Medical practice and related services - 85140000 - Miscellaneous health services - 85141000 - Services provided by medical personnel - 85141200 - Services provided by nurses ## Release History - 9 Aug 2017 at 14:00 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/920378b7-b7bf-457d-a7eb-ac8e706a191d ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/920378b7-b7bf-457d-a7eb-ac8e706a191d 9th August 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=21068&B=BLUELIGHT Additional data - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/36335 User / Company ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
