Description

1.1 The Council wishes to procure around 250 identified statutory reviews and assessments whilst developing the Council's recruitment and retention strategy and workforce plan to meet the increase in demand and complexity. The requirement is split into Lot 1 and Lot 2 as follows:

? Lot 1: 150 statutory social care reviews to be completed across the locality teams across the Borough

? Lot 2: 100 occupational therapy cases have been identified where moving and handling support is required. These cases have existing packages of support provided by two carers per call and require a review to determine if care can be safely provided by one carer, or are currently on our Discharge to Assess pathway and are in the process of assessment for a long term package of support.

There may be a potential requirement for increase of the quantity of reviews required beyond those identified above.
