Description
The London Borough of Havering is seeking interest from organisations that are able to provide individual packages of care and support to children and adults with complex needs. The Council will use a dynamic purchasing system to commission care and support packages for people with either a single or combination of learning disabilities, mental health needs, physical disabilities, sensory disabilities and other complex vulnerabilities (e.g. autism spectrum disorder).
The following services will be commissioned under the Dynamic purchasing system:
1) Supported living services:
These services will be commissioned for both children and adults. Supported living services are community based personal care and/or support for clients where care (e.g. moving and washing) and/or support (e.g. housing related, recreational activities) is delivered flexibly according to each individual care package in the child's or adult's home and local community. An emphasis of supported living is to encourage and develop skills and independence. Packages will range from either a few hours a week to 24 hour support. For adults, care and support will be provided in either shared or self-contained accommodation.
2) Residential care:
This service will be commissioned for adults only. Residential care service provides personal care for clients where care/support is delivered in a registered care home setting with 24 hour support.
3) Nursing care:
This service will be commissioned for adults only. Nursing care provides personal care for clients where care/support is delivered in a registered care home setting with 24 hour support including registered nurses.
4) Domiciliary care:
This service will be commissioned for adults only. Domiciliary care provides household and personal care for clients where care is delivered at a service user's home.
5) Live in care:
This service will be commissioned for adults only. Live in care provides care and support where the carer has their own living space in the client's home.
