Description

Central procurement Vitamin D supplements for Nursing and Residential Homes.

Vitamin D is needed for healthy bones and muscles and during autumn and winter, everyone is advised to take a vitamin D supplement of 10 micrograms. DHSC wishes to procure vitamin D for vulnerable population groups. This is because they may have been indoors more than usual this year and therefore it is even more important to take a vitamin D supplement as we go into the winter months to protect musculoskeletal health. This procurement will concern the supply, of vitamin D to vulnerable groups.
