The service will be provided in Cardiff, UK, and the procurement process is in the 'Tender' stage. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses in the domiciliary care sector to expand their services. Companies that specialise in providing rapid response domiciliary care and support services, especially for hospital discharge situations, would be well-suited to compete. The Cardiff Council is the buying organisation for this tender, offering a framework arrangement for up to four providers to deliver the service. Potential bidders should align their offerings with the council's requirements for a City-Wide pilot scheme lasting for a period of 10 months. ## Notice Rapid response domiciliary care service to help alleviate pressure in hospital and to assess people for the level of need for ongoing domiciliary care. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Cardiff Council recently sought to commission 4 providers to deliver the original D2RA Winter pressures contract, unfortunately only 3 were able to be appointed and there have been some changes with the awarded Domiciliary Care Providers. As a result of this and some additional pressures it is necessary to commission up to a further 4 Domiciliary Care Providers to deliver Rapid Response to Reablement Assessment (D2RA) Domiciliary Care Services across the City. This will continue to be part of the original pilot as a second Framework arrangement to ensure sufficient capacity is available to support the safe discharge from hospital for individuals to return to their home. These packages of care will support individuals who are medically fit and discharge ready to leave hospital but require a period of assessment to take place in their own home to determine their long- term level of need. It is intended that the hours of care purchased within the package of care, will be used to support individuals who have been assessed as requiring support to return home following a period in hospital. These are people whose needs would be assessed as requiring a Domiciliary Care package of care. There is the expectation that the initial level of care for some people may be over prescribed, with possibly double handed care being provided initially, in order to safeguard the individual whilst they are assessed in their own home. The Rapid Response Domiciliary Care services will be provided to meet the outcomes of the individual in their own home environment. Within the first 10 working days a review of their care needs will be undertaken by an Occupational Therapist/ Social Worker/Assistant, from within our community teams, they will right-size the package. If the package requires double handed care, the review will take place within the first 3 working days. The proposed model is a City-Wide pilot scheme and is expected that the pilot will be delivered for a period of 10 months ((but no later longer than 17th November 2023) that will address the demands by: Implementing a framework model of service by commissioning a framework of up to four domiciliary care providers to deliver a Rapid Response Team. The Rapid Response Care Team supporting the Discharge within 72-hours of a referral from the integrated Discharge Hub (IDH) Taking the hospitalised person when they are discharge ready home. Ensuring clear communication between the Care Coordinators & Integrated Discharge Hub (IDH), the person would settle for a couple of days and the Multi-Disciplinary Team (MDT), along with the provider and the citizen would right size the care & support package within 10 days of discharge. The Rapid Response Team would take on next discharge ready person. The service being provided by Domiciliary Care Provider(s) will be for 7-days a week. The person, after 10-days support, would go through brokerage to identify a provider to meet the assessed longer-term care & support package if required. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Sell2Wales | | Latest notice | https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=128095 | | Notice type | OJEU - F2 - Contract 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 | 13 Jan 2023 | | Submission deadline | 30 Jan 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | 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 | CARDIFF COUNCIL | | Locality | CARDIFF | | Post town | Cardiff | | Postcode | CF10 4UW | | 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 | Butetown | | Westminster constituency | Cardiff South and Penarth | | Delivery location | TLL22 Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services - 85320000 - Social services ## Release History - 13 Jan 2023 at 00:00 - Tender - OJEU - F2 - Contract Notice - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=128095 ## Documents - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JAN424144 Domiciliary Care Rapid Response Service - Discharge to Recover then Assess (D2RA) to Support Hospital Discharge - Rapid response domiciliary care service to help alleviate pressure in hospital and to assess people for the level of need for ongoing domiciliary care. ## Notice URLs - http://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=128095 - https://api.sell2wales.gov.wales/v1?lang=cy/Notice?id=ocds-kuma6s-128095 - https://supplierlive.proactisp2p.com/Account/Login - https://www.cardiff.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
