Description

Bath & North East Somerset wishes to establish a single provider Contract for the provision of ASC Support at Home Services. The procurement is run in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023, Light Touch Regime (LTR) above-threshold, one stage tender. The Support at Home Service will help people remain living at home, gain in confidence, and provide short term practical help after hospital discharge or following community or out-patient medical care to prevent admission to hospital. The service will deliver high quality support to individuals, free at the point of delivery, accepting referrals from health and care services, and approaches by the public. The service will provide an easily accessible front door via the Community Wellbeing Hub referral process and meet the needs of individuals across the geographical area of B&NES. It will actively engage with health, care and other third sector providers, promoting its services, ensuring that providers are aware of services offered. The service provider will be an active member of the Community Wellbeing Hub and similar local partnerships, to support cross working, referrals and information sharing. The service will work in parallel to and in collaboration with other available services currently forming part of the discharge support pathway, which may be reviewed in future, including CWH Hospital Connectors and Help Pack provision.
