Description

Know the Score is the name currently given to Rotherham's under 18 drugs and alcohol specialist service. Building on what we have learnt in Rotherham substance misuse delivery, the specification mirrors good practice elsewhere and encompasses the recommendations from Public Health England, (2013), Alcohol & drugs: JSNA support pack and relevant National Institute for Clinical and Health Excellence (NICE) Guidance. The service is required to work inclusively with the Rotherham community offering high quality interventions to young people for any type of drug, substance that can be misused, (for example solvents), and alcohol. Interventions can include pharmacological (prescribed medications) treatment options. The young people who present often present with multiple vulnerabilities. The specification matches the ethos and compliments the Rotherham wide delivery to children and young people. The service outcomes replicate those of the wider children and young people delivery. Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council (RMBC) are inviting bids from a number of organisations who might be able to commission a service for under 18's drugs and alcohol specialist services, the value available is up to a maximum of £218k per annum. Over the 4 years duration. (Please note this is not a guarantee of funding, and may vary up or down). The contract value is inclusive of any/all prescribing costs and your submitted pricing bids (via appendix Z) should represent this. Know the score is the name currently given to Rotherham's specialist service. This service has been delivered as part of the children's directorate of a mental health foundation trust, it was previously based within Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services and prior to that was part of the Adult Drug Treatment Services. The service in the past has been recognised as a model of national good practice, being able to offer a range of services through the tiers of interventions one to three. Although in recent years with diminishing resource the role has been focused around tiers two and three. The service has always been able to provide access to prescribing, although the need for that has varied as patterns of drug use have changed. Being a small service there are three key areas of activity.
