Summary: Cheshire West and Chester Council intends to commission one integrated, all-age service for unpaid carers across Cheshire West and Chester. It will bring together support currently provided through separate adult, parent and young-carer services. The service is intended to offer a single point of access, information and advice, early identification and outreach, help with carers’ rights and assessments, wellbeing and peer support, and opportunities for breaks from caring. Delivery is expected to combine digital, community-based and face-to-face support, working with social care, education, health, community and voluntary-sector partners. The purpose is to help carers be recognised and supported, improve wellbeing and resilience, reduce isolation, and enable earlier, coordinated support that can prevent needs escalating.

Summary: The Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust established a national framework for prescription hub and related patient support services. Its five service areas cover stoma prescriptions, catheter prescriptions, combined stoma and catheter prescriptions, pre- and/or post-operative stoma care support, and combined stoma prescription and care support. The aim is to give NHS and other eligible health authorities compliant services that supplement patient care and support NHS standards. Delivery covers England and Wales.

National Framework Agreement for the Provision of Autism andADHD Assessment Services

Description: The Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust wishes to establish a Framework Agreement under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 (and as amended) (the PSR) for use by all Relevant Authorities (and any future successors to these organisations). "Relevant authority" is defined in section 12ZB(7) of the National Health Service Act 2006. It means a combined authority, an integrated care board, a local authority in England, NHS England, an NHS foundation trust or an NHS trust established under section 25 of that Act. For the avoidance of doubt, any successor bodies of any of the above entities shall be entitled to place Orders and shall be deemed Relevant Authorities for the purposes of this Framework Agreement. Demand for autism and ADHD assessment and diagnosis (read more...)

Summary: Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council commissioned an insourced autism diagnostic assessment service for children and young people on its waiting list, using external clinical capacity in NHS or local authority settings to improve access and reduce delays. This is a local paediatric assessment service, rather than the wider national framework described in the procurement background. The work is delivered in Barnsley. It sits within a broader framework for autism and ADHD assessment and diagnosis for adults and children; that framework can also cover ADHD medication prescribing, titration and review. The Council’s specific requirement here is autism assessment for children and young people, so providers focused only on adult assessments or ADHD medication services may find the call-off does not match their core offer.
