Description

NWL CCG requires the Provision of Community Independence Service (CIS) in Hammersmith & Fulham, Kensington & Chelsea and Westminster. The aim of the service is to provide service users access to:
-A community based rapid response service (within 2 hours, up to 5 days length of stay in the service) to prevent hospital admissions
-A Community rehabilitation and reablement services (for up to 6 weeks of input).
'Homefirst' - providing a "discharge to assess" pathway to facilitate timely discharge from acute hospital. Assessment should take place within 2 hours of arrival home. Ongoing needs identified within 72 hours of the assessment starting.

The contract value is approximately £9,300,000 per annum. The purpose of this PIN is to be transparent about the CCG's intentions. Central & North West London Foundation Trust (CNWL) has been delivering these services for the CCG through a "joint" lead provider model. CNWL is the lead health provider; the local authorities act as lead social care provider. Going forward, the above services will be incorporated into the larger CNWL core agreement and expressions of interest are therefore not sought. NWL CCG is committed to assess the needs of the service users and consider how (if relevant) it needs to secure the needs of the people who use the services, and improve the quality and efficiency in the provision of the services including through the services being provided in an integrated way.

During 2022, it is anticipated that NWL CCG will be succeeded by an Integrated Care Board (ICB). Any future contract and/or procurement opportunity may therefore be in the name of the ICB.
