Provision of Care & Support in Extra Care Housing

Tender description

The London Borough of Bromley (“the Council”) is looking to procure the care and support in 6 Extra Care Housing schemes across the Borough and is inviting tenders from experienced providers of Extra Care Housing Services. Extra Care Housing Schemes are specialist housing provision designed to offer a safe and private environment for older residents who are eligible for additional care needs. A key aspect of Extra Care Housing is that residents are encouraged and supported to maintain their independence whilst having the benefit of planned and responsive emergency care 24/7 when needed. The services are predominantly for older people, who may have health needs including those with dementia. The 6 schemes are across the London Borough of Bromley, and are being tendered in 2 lots. Providers can bid for both Lots but in order to manage the risk of over exposure to one provider; the Council intends to appoint a minimum of two Providers, with each Lot being awarded to a separate provider. Providers must be registered with the CQC and promote personalisation and choice within the care and support they provide. The Council welcomes and encourages tenders from consortiums with other care and support providers or housing agents. Organisations with an interest in providing the Service shall ensure they read all the information contained within the Instructions to Candidates document and that their PQQs fully address the information requested within the Instructions to Candidates and Procurement Questions documents.
