This initiative aims to identify potential providers for block booking of residential and nursing home beds within Hackney and nearby areas. Key dates include the engagement end date set for 14 October 2019. The procurement falls under the health services industry, specifically classified under social work and related services, with a focus on enhancing care accessibility to reduce delayed transfers of care. This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses in the residential and nursing home sector, particularly those with available bed vacancies and a Care Quality Commission (CQC) rating of Good or above. Companies engaged in providing health-related services and keen to address care provision in the Hackney area would be well-suited to compete. Interested parties are encouraged to express their interest through the Pro-Contract Portal, which facilitates further negotiations and potential contract opportunities. ## Notice Calling all Residential Homes / Nursing Homes with Bed Vacancies in Hackney and surrounding Boroughs The London Borough of Hackney and City and Hackney CCG have been working hard to reduce the numbers of Delayed transfers of Care (DToC) over the last few years, with some success, reducing overall DToCs by nearly 30% over 12 months. However, we continue to have more delays than we want, due to difficulties accessing care homes. We are now potentially seeking to purchase, either on a block booking or block and volume basis, both residential and nursing home beds (+dementia) in the Hackney or surrounding areas. We are seeking homes that are easy for residents and their families to get to from Hackney. Ideally your home should have a CQC rating of Good or above, although we will consider services with ratings of requires improvement in certain areas. All homes will be subject to either a visit, consultation and a review of any improvement plans. This market engagement is to initially identify potential providers who may wish to express an interest whom we may then seek to negotiate with individual care homes/companies. If you wish to be considered as part of this engagement exercise please send initial expressions of interest, stating if you have any beds available and if so how many and of what type, via the Pro-Contract Portal - if you are not registered on the portal you will need to register (this is free of charge) as all communications will be conducted using the Pro-Contract portal. The closing date for expressions of interest is Monday 14 October 2019. We will contact interested parties shortly after this date for further information. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9c8b6616-2a9e-43ed-adf1-0fe9cf7eff4d | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 19 Sep 2019 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 14 Oct 2019 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LONDON BOROUGH OF HACKNEY | | Locality | HACKNEY | | Post town | East London | | Postcode | E8 1DY | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI41 Hackney and Newham | | Local authority | Hackney | | Electoral ward | Hackney Central | | Westminster constituency | Hackney South and Shoreditch | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85100000 - Health services - 85300000 - Social work and related services ## Release History - 19 Sep 2019 at 15:00 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9c8b6616-2a9e-43ed-adf1-0fe9cf7eff4d ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/9c8b6616-2a9e-43ed-adf1-0fe9cf7eff4d 19th September 2019 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.hackney.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
