## Summary

The Shropshire Council is currently conducting a tender titled "AMCV 303 - 2 Carers in a Car," which aims to procure a night care support service in the health and social work sector. This service requires two care personnel and a vehicle to provide assistance from 10pm to 6.30am, seven days a week, within the West Midlands region of the United Kingdom. The tender is an open procedure, with a submission deadline set for 21st January 2022, for a contract that will commence on 12th May 2022 and last until 11th May 2027, with a total contract value of £4,794,300.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses that specialise in care services, particularly those that are CQC registered and can mobilise two carers consistently for overnight shifts. Companies with expertise in health and social care, especially those with a focus on responsive support for individuals returning home from hospital or requiring overnight assistance, will find this procurement particularly relevant. The tender encourages involvement from voluntary and community services enterprises, fostering a competitive environment where such organisations can thrive.

## Notice

Tenders are invited from CQC registered care providers to deliver a Night care support service to be known as '2 carers in a car'. The scheme requires two carers and one vehicle who can travel to any household within the allocated area to provide support between 10pm and 6.30am. The service is required 7 days per week. This support may be assistance for toilet care, to getting into bed at a later time than when regular carers are available, reassurance if just home from hospital, or as an alternative to a hospital admission where night support is required. This scheme enables care support to be provided to a number of people throughout the night. The group of people supported will vary according to need. Please note: this service cannot be delivered unless 2 carers are available - therefore providers should not bid unless they are able to able to ensure this cover at all times.
