This should prevent, or delay, the admission into residential care and promote personalisation and independence. The service will be flexible and responsive to the support needs of the individual in the service, while being mindful of the short-term nature of this service. This period should allow future care / support requirements to be identified through a full assessment of care and support needs and for any new service required to be identified and delivered efficiently. Proactive early planning for move on from the service will be critical to enable flow through the service and onto other longer term support services, should they be required. This includes request for services such as assistive technology and planning with the individual, their families and carers to support the move to funded services, whether supported by the Council or not. The funding available for two years is for the provision of this service of up to 6 units (individual placements) at any one time.Evaluation will be based on Quality and Social Value (70%), the price the Council will pay, will be contained in the tender (and will be a fixed rate, unless notified otherwise ). Bidders will need to be CQC registered and have a current inspection rating of Good at point of tender submission.
