This procurement pertains to the welfare services industry, specifically services not delivered through residential institutions. The contract, valued at approximately £182,000, will provide support to adults in Torbay who require short-term assistance to avoid residential or hospital admissions. The contract is set to commence on 1st December 2024 and will end on 31st May 2026. Interested parties should note key tender deadlines, with submissions closing on 13th September 2024. This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in community health, care services, and crisis interventions. The open procurement method and light touch regime ensure that a broad range of service providers, particularly SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), can compete. Businesses capable of providing personal care, medication management, and support for mobility and independence would be well-suited to this contract. Successful bidders will contribute to a valuable service that supports residents in remaining safely at home and facilitates smooth transitions from hospital to home. ## Notice Please note that the procurement will be using the Light Touch Regime. Please Note that the contract value is a guide only and those submitting a tender will need to calculate their own value. The provision of the service is to enable a flexible and responsive approach to those people who need short term support living in the community that may result in admission to a residential home or hospital, if need remains unmet. This adds an additional support mechanism for teams working with people in the community to help them remain safe at home, avoid hospital admission where safe to do so, and also to support people being discharged from hospital. The service is primarily for people with an urgent need for example those referred into intermediate care, urgent care response, hospital discharge or adult social care. The service will provide a comprehensive range of support, encompassing assistance with personal care, the management and administration of both prescribed and over-the-counter medications, delegated health tasks (if staff are properly trained), and practical aids for various daily activities. This assistance includes re-learning or acquiring new skills to foster greater independence, support for engaging in prescribed interventions to regain mobility, identifying opportunities for the utilisation of suitable assistive technologies that promote independence while ensuring safety, and other tasks which are reasonably in line with the service provision purpose. The service is available for all Torbay adults who fit the criteria and will be a crisis intervention, temporary support. It is anticipated that the service may be in place for a service user for approximately 14 days, but this will vary depending on need. If a long-term need is identified, an alternative solution will be sought. It will be the responsibility of the allocated Health or Social Care Worker to assess and source a long-term care solution, following on from the service. If long term care is needed, the person being supported will remain under this service until the care act assessment is completed and sourcing has gone out to the market.
