Description
NHS South Yorkshire Integrated Care Board (SY ICB) are looking to procure unplanned care provision for individuals with a learning disability and individuals who are autistic as part of improving their crisis pathways and preventing admission into hospital. The safe place/crisis bed model is not a new model and has been used for mental health patients for a number of years locally and nationally. There are also a number of models that have been developed specifically for learning disabilities and autism across other Integrated Care Systems nationally that have proved very successful. These models support individuals when they are reaching crisis and in most cases prevent admission into an inpatient setting. They can also prevent breakdown of existing placements/homes by allowing a short admission to assess and reformulate care and support plans to enable them to move back into their existing homes.
We have developed a draft specification and would like to invite you to attend a market engagement event so that we can test the viability of delivering the proposed service model and to allow providers to share their views on the specification.
The market testing event will be held on Tuesday 6th December between 2-4pm at Oak House, Moorhead Way, Bramley, Rotherham S66 1YY (Rooms Birch and Elm ).
The draft service specification will be circulated at the end of November for you to review. If you are unable to attend but would like the opportunity to speak to us about the content of the specification, please do still contact us as it may be possible to repeat this event using Teams if there is enough interest.
The financial envelope will be shared at the market engagement event, detailed above.
The tender process will take place in March 2023. With the expectation that services are mobilised and ready to start delivery in October 2023.
Please can you respond to this invitation via the portal, outlining if you wish to attend. There are a limited number of spaces, so we are limiting places to 2 per organisation.
