Description

The Trust requires a provision of Serviced Apartments, local to The Christie main site in Withington, Manchester and the Royal Manchester Children's Hospital ("RMCH") on the University Campus, Manchester, to accommodate its patients and their families and carers while they are preparing for and receiving cancer treatment.
The Serviced Apartments will be used by patients and their families as part of a service managed by The Christie. The Christie will be the corporate client and will direct the bookings of apartments within the provision according to the patient's treatment timescale.
Each patient stay is expected to last between a single night at minimum and up to approximately 60 nights at maximum. Patients may be under the clinical care of one or more Trust departments during their stay, including but not limited to:
• Proton Therapy
• Young Oncology Unit Ambulatory Care Services
• CAR T-Cell Therapy
• Specialist Surgery
• Clinical Trials
IMPORTANT NOTE: The sought provision is non-clinical in nature. Bidders are asked to provide serviced apartments only, and are not required or expected to provide medical care of any kind. The provider will not take any clinical responsibilities for patients staying at their premises.
