This tender is classified under residential health facilities services and is being executed via an open procurement method. The tender period closed on 4 June 2021, with the contract period commencing on 14 June 2021 and running until 30 September 2021. The total contract value is £209,700, with a minimum spend of £104,850, and it is situated within the Yorkshire and the Humber region of the UK. This tender provides an excellent opportunity for small to medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) involved in health care and related services. Businesses with capabilities in residential care provision, especially those with CQC accreditation and expertise in managing complex health needs, will find this project particularly suited to their offerings. The providers are expected to be able to deliver rapid discharge services and maintain infection control, creating the potential for growth within the healthcare sector during ongoing pandemic challenges. ## Notice Calderdale, Kirklees and Wakefield Health and Social Care partners are working together to commission 6 designated Covid-19 nursing/EMI and complex beds with the option to increase further, up to 12, as demand dictates. It is not feasible to discharge COVID positive patients back to their normal place of residence including care homes for risk of the infection spreading. The strategy of not discharging back to homes has seen a low number of deaths and spread of infection at the height of the pandemic. A separate, additional bed capacity is therefore required to support this cohort enabling: * Rapid discharge of COVID positive patients who are medically fit for discharge from hospital and reducing the number of delayed transfers of care (supporting the local plans) * Bed capacity within the local system for COVID positive patients to mitigate: any future wave and/or a peak as we enter the summer period Requirements The service will: * Be provided within Kirklees, or its boundaries, and having good road links to the local Acute Hospitals (Calderdale Royal Hospital, Huddersfield Royal Infirmary, Pinderfields General Hospital) * The service will be provided by care home staff and supported by, therapies and a dedicated GP service The Provider will: * Be CQC registered with a rating of at least good, or be able to reach this standard at service start * Be CQC approved as a Designated Covid bed setting, or be assessed within 48 hours at service start * Be a nursing, EMI or Complex bed provider with 24 hour access to nursing care * Accept referrals from 8am - 7pm, 7 days a week within 0 - 2 hours * Receive patients on the same day, up to 2 individuals per day * Update the capacity tracker at least daily * Ensure all staff are Covid vaccinated, including bank staff * Work with the Infection Protection Control teams The price per bed is to be based on circa PS1165.
