Description

This award is for a block contract of 61 Nursing Home Beds. The contract is awarded under the Negotiated Procedure without prior publication in accordance with Regulation32 of Public Contract regulation PCR 2015. The Council believes the use of this procedure is justifiable on grounds that competition as absent for technical reasons.
The market for residential and nursing care is very tight at the moment and demand in the sub-region(Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Haringey and Islington) outstrips the supply of nursing beds. Priscilla Wakefield House is one of only two nursing homes in Haringey and the only one which is currently rated at Good or above. There are 77 Haringey residents currently living at Priscilla Wakefield House, delivered by Magicare Limited. They are all extremely vulnerable and frail and many are very elderly. It would not be possible to find alternative nursing care accommodation in the borough for these residents, or in boroughs adjacent to Haringey, where existing residents would be able to live together and to receive the same quality of care.
Therefore, there are no reasonable alternatives or substitutes for this provision in-borough or in the surrounding boroughs.
