Description
NHS RotherhamCCG is seeking to appoint a single provider for the provision of a Social Prescribing service as outlined below. The service is required to be based in a community setting in Rotherham.
Social prescribing is a catch-all term for non-medical services that aim to prevent worsening health for people with long-term health conditions. In recent years locality-based social prescribing services have increasingly been developed by health and social care commissioners to provide a mechanism for linking patients in primary care with sources of social, therapeutic and practical support in the voluntary and community sector. Social prescribing is being promoted by the Department of Health and NHS England as a vital component in the transformation and integration of health and social care." Third sector providers can complement the services that people with LTCs and Mental Health issues already receive from the NHS. Third sector organisations provide flexible, locally appropriate services that help individuals with various aspects of their self-management. Different people will have different needs.
RCCG is seeking to appoint a single provider for this Service, the envisaged start day is to be April 1st 2019.
The contract will be for 3 years with an option to extend for 2 years, subject to agreement by both parties.
