The Council intends to commission the following types of care via this framework. The Service may be a combination of these types but is primarily being purchased to support the Council with meeting these Care Act duties.\nLong-term Home Care  \nPackages of care for Individuals living with long-term conditions who have limited or no reablement potential and cannot manage without support. This may include the provision of support for Individuals which is deemed necessary to support their Unpaid Carer.  On occasion a waking night (support from a care worker overnight) may also be commissioned.  \nShort-term Reablement \nShort-term care packages for Individuals with good or likely reablement potential, to relearn independent living skills to such an extent that the future level of dependency or reliance on adult social care is greatly reduced or not needed at all. \nHospital Discharge \nPackages requiring a rapid start to facilitate Individuals to return home from hospital. These packages may also be short term and reablement-focused. \nLive-in Care \nPackages where a care worker lives with an Individual in their home so that support can be available 24/7. Schedule 11 provides specific information regarding live-in care. \n The Service shall predominantly be delivered in an Individual\u0027s own home or current residence (which could be temporary). The core service shall be available as required between the times of 06:00 and 23:00, 7 (seven) days a week 365 days of the year.   \nA majority of Individuals requiring home care are aged 65+, but Providers must be able and willing to support Individuals with a range of needs including: \nIndividuals aged 65 or over \nIndividuals aged 18-64 \nPeople with Physical health needs \nLearning disability and neurodiversity \nMemory and cognition difficulties, including brain injury and dementia \nMental health problems \nSuppliers that would like to take part in this process are invited to \"Express Interest\" upon which they will be given access to the full documentation delivered through this portal.
