This procurement falls under the Health services category and is based in the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom. The procurement stage is currently in the planning phase, with a future notice date set for 2nd August 2023. The contract period is from 1st April 2024 to 31st March 2029. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses, especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations, interested in providing high-quality domiciliary care services. The procurement method is an open procedure (above threshold), welcoming qualified providers to deliver person-centred care to adults and children with continuing healthcare needs. Businesses suited for this tender should be prepared for market engagement events, have relevant expertise in healthcare services, and be equipped to meet the specified care standards for both adult and young populations. ## Notice NHS Northamptonshire Integrated Care Board (NICB) wish to establish a list of qualified providers who can provide high quality, person centred and flexible care in two separate Lots for Domiciliary Care and Support for Adults and Children and Young People with continuing healthcare needs. Lot 1 - Domiciliary Care and Support for Adults with continuing healthcare needs will cover domiciliary care services to adults aged 18 and over who have been assessed as eligible to receive continuing healthcare. The term 'Domiciliary Care' is being used to describe care and support services delivered to an individual in their own home including 24-hr support. Lot 2 - Domiciliary Care and Support for Children and Young People with continuing care needs covers people aged 0-18. Care and support needs will be identified and commissioned as a Care Package. The Provider will be expected to meet each child or young person's care needs. The service will be procured through an Any Qualified Provider process which is anticipated to be published in early August 2023. NICB wish to invite interested organisations to a market engagement event which will be held at 10am on Tuesday 1st August 2023.
