Description
NHS England and Improvement South East seeks to commission an Integrated Health and Emotional Wellbeing Service for children and young people at HMYOI Cookham Wood.
The Integrated Health and Emotional Wellbeing Service will develop and deliver provision that is child-focused, integrated and innovative, offering excellent care for children and young people whilst they are in the secure setting alongside preparing them for their transitions back in to the community or in to adult secure settings.
Alongside Youth Custody Services, the provider will jointly enable the transformation of HMYOI Cookham Wood to a trauma informed environment.

NHSEI welcomes bids by providers that work in partnership with third sector agencies that can successfully engage the children and young people in service design and participate in service activities.

•Young people should receive at least an equivalent service to that available to the general population with respect to access to services based on need
•Healthcare services in the Youth Criminal Justice System should seek to both improve health and wellbeing and contribute to reducing re-offending
•Young people should expect to experience a measurable improvement in their health and well-being, particularly in respect to access to primary healthcare, health promotion, health and emotional wellbeing, substance misuse and mental health services. Young people should expect continuity of care between custodial settings and between custody and community
•Young people with identified social care needs should expect integrated health and social care which allows as much independence as possible within the constraints of custody.
•To deliver a value for money Integrated Health and Emotional Wellbeing Service into HMYOI Cookham Wood
