Children and Young People with a Neurodisability have a range of impairments but many have complex and continuing need and as a result are frequent users of the health service at all levels, community, primary care inpatient and outpatient settings. Acquired brain injury (ABI) is injury to the brain caused by an identifiable event such as trauma, hypoxia, metabolic disorders or infection. The effects of an ABI on children can vary greatly and will depend on the part of the brain that suffered the damage and the amount of damage caused. The effects can range from mild to severe and may include changes in a child or young person's physical ability, cognitive skills, personality, behaviour and how they communicate. Therapeutic intervention for this group of service users is delivered by Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Speech and Language therapists in conjunction with the Child or Young Person and their family using a multidisciplinary team around the child approach in order to meet patient goals and optimise outcomes. The Consortium require external support for children within the inclusion criteria outlined in the specification as an enhancement to current Hospital services. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/007564-2022 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 21 Mar 2022 | | Submission deadline | 25 Apr 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £900,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS WALES SHARED SERVICES PARTNERSHIP-PROCUREMENT SERVICES (HOSTED BY VELINDRE UNIVERSITY NHS TRUST) | | Locality | CARDIFF | | Post town | Cardiff | | Postcode | CF14 4HH | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL5 South East Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL52 Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan | | Local authority | Cardiff | | Electoral ward | Heath | | Westminster constituency | Cardiff North | | Delivery location | TLL22 Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85142100 - Physiotherapy services - 85323000 - Community health services ## Release History - 21 Mar 2022 at 12:25 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/007564-2022 ## Notice URLs - http://nwssp.nhs.wales/ourservices/procurement-services/ - http://www.etenderwales.bravosolution.co.uk - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/Search_AuthProfile.aspx?ID=AA0221 - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=119780 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
