## Summary

The procurement process involves a tender from the Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust for the project titled "Primary Care Provision to Mental Health and Learning Disability In Patient Services." This initiative aims to provide primary care services to patients with severe mental illness and learning disabilities across several inpatient units located in the East Midlands, United Kingdom. The tender period is currently open, concluding on 2nd March 2018, with a contract period set to commence on 1st July 2018 and will run until 30th June 2021. The estimated value of the contract is £324,000, and the procurement is being conducted through an open procedure.

This tender presents a unique opportunity for businesses in the healthcare sector, particularly those offering medical practice and related services, to enhance their service portfolios. Organisations that specialise in primary care for mental health and learning disability services would be particularly well-suited to compete, given the specific care requirements outlined for the various inpatient units involved. Companies can tender for any or all of the four lots available, catering to facilities that include Stewart House, Mill Lodge, The Willows, Herschel Prins Centre, and Agnes Unit.

## Notice

Please apply for the tender via Due North. This service is to ensure that those suffering from severe mental illness and/or a learning disability and are resident within the inpatient units listed below can have easy access to a GP or primary care service when they are not able to maintain contact with their own GP. There are four lots. Suppliers can tender for any or all lots. Lot 1: Stewart House (28 beds) Stewart House provides inpatient rehabilitation for patients with severe mental illness. Patients referred typically experience severe behavioural disturbance with challenging behaviour. The patients at Stewart House may be resident for up to 15 months as part of their rehabilitation programme. Lot 1: Mill Lodge (15 beds) Mill Lodge provides for patients with a diagnosis of Huntingdon's Disease. Patients may be admitted for a period of medical review and to stabilise their condition or for end stage management of the disease and palliative care. Patients referred typically experience severe behavioural disturbance with challenging behaviour. Lot 2: The Willows (38 beds) The Willows provides inpatient rehabilitation for patients with severe and enduring mental illness. Patients may have a history of disengagement with mental and physical health services. They require a longer period of inpatient admission to stabilise their mental health, and support to optimise their level of functioning back in the community. The patients at The Willows may be resident for up to 15 months as part of their rehabilitation programme. Lot 3: Herschel Prins Centre (12 beds) The Herschel Prins Centre is a low secure unit that provides inpatient care for patients with a mental illness including personality disorder, with an offending history and/or history of challenging behaviour. The length of admission can vary, but patients may be admitted for up to 24 months as part of their rehabilitation care pathway. Lot 4: Agnes Unit (12 beds) The Agnes unit is a 20 bedded unit, (currently commissioned for 12 LLR beds), divided into 5 pods of 4 beds each. The unit caters for adults with a learning disability who have mental health problems, pervasive developmental disorders, cognitive problems, offending history and challenging behaviour. It provides longer stay rehabilitation as step down into the community, as well as assessment and treatment for acute presentations. The provider for Lot 4 may, on occasion, be required to visit a service user at one of the Learning Disability Short Break units based on the Glenfield Hospital site (This would be within the allocated session for the Agnes Unit). The LD Short Break Units provide respite care for individuals with a learning disability and health needs, assessed through a continuing care assessment. The units provide planned stays throughout the year to individuals who live at home with families, in order to facilitate a break for the carers and also provide a therapeutic opportunity for service users.
