Description

Market Engagement Event, Thursday 4th April 2019 at the Richardson Community Hospital, Barnard Castle.
The contract between the GP provider(s) and County Durham & Darlington NHS Foundation Trust (CDDFT) relating to the provision of medical cover during specified hours to patients in three of the Community Hospitals is due to expire at the end of September 2019.
This market engagement event will provide a brief summary of the current situation and an opportunity to generate discussion about the future vision of the services. Through the new integration agenda created by the recent CDDFT Community Services reconfiguration, it is anticipated that all parties concerned with patients and staff in these community hospitals can help design the preferred outcome in support of these dynamic local services.
It is clear community hospitals play an important role in the local community but there is more we can do to improve the care as part of a pathway working collaboratively in the best interests of the patients. This event will provide the platform for that discussion to take place and shape the future model of care for these hospitals. Ultimately supporting the information needed for the formation of the tender specification. For further information please refer to the attached Procurement Plan;
