Description

The Dementia Support Service will be expected to provide post-diagnostic support, including 1:1 support, to people with dementia and their carers in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire excepting Bassetlaw, to make sure they are able to successfully manage
the transitions associated with dementia. The service will also be expected to provide written resources and training for generalist organisations in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire and work alongside them to develop and deliver joint group activities.

The procurement will secure a service that will develop and circulate appropriate resources to make sure patients and their carers are informed and supported to make decisions around their own care and support need; it will also offer support to patients and carers during periods where transition management is needed, working alongside other health, social care and community and voluntary sector professionals and offering practical help and support to minimise stress and risk during key periods and maximise
independence and choice wherever safe and appropriate.
