The tender's title is "Provision of Domiciliary Care Services in the Western Health and Social Care Trust Area" and falls under the category of other community, social, and personal services. The original contract period has been extended by 12 months, starting from 1st March 2022 and expiring on 28th February 2023, necessitated by the Covid-19 pandemic and the resultant pressures on the domiciliary care sector.
