Description

The Dementia Short Term Intervention Service was based on feedback from Primary Care and was initially a pilot project established in April 2020 to test a gap in the market. Its aim is to offer 1-1 support to people living with dementia who are starting to struggle with their situation and present at Primary Care or other contact point (such as Adult Social Care or from the voluntary sector). The service aims to prevent further deterioration and potential crisis. The evidence collected during the pilot period has shown the need for, and effectiveness of, this service.

The service will contribute towards improving the care we provide to people with dementia. It will support people living with dementia who are starting to struggle with their situation and present at Primary Care or other contact point. It will aim to prevent further deterioration and potential crisis.
Outcomes delivered by the service for people living with dementia will be:
• Increased resilience
• Helping people to live well in their community
• Improving knowledge and understanding of living with dementia
• Preventing social isolation
• Maintaining independence, choice and control
• Accessing and building wide support networks
• Improving coping strategies and recognising increasing difficulties
• Improving access to diagnosis of dementia

The contract will be for three years with option to extend for two further years totalling five years. The annual budget not to be exceeded is £70,000. This contract will be uplifted in line with the NHS national tariffs for contract inflation (published annually by NHSE&I). Organisations should bid using the current costs and any contract inflation will be applied in addition to this
