Outcome based Domiciliary Care: Market Engagement Event with Voluntary Sector Organisations

Tender description

Friday 21st October 2016 10 a.m. to noon – followed by a light lunch Bracknell Sports & Leisure Centre, Bagshot Rd, Bracknell RG12 9SE Bracknell Forest Council is holding a number of market engagement events to develop an asset based approach to delivering domiciliary care services. The council is considering a model whereby support is delivered through partnerships which would include the person, domiciliary care providers, and the voluntary and community sector, as well as support resources that people already have in place. As part of this, voluntary sector organisations are invited to attend a market engagement event to look at the role of the voluntary sector. We hope that you will be able to join us on the 21st October, so that we can discuss our vision in more detail, and hear your views. Bracknell Forest Council is keen to develop the new model in consultation with voluntary sector organisations, and this free event has been organised for this purpose. Organisations who wish to attend are requested to register by emailing contracts.team@bracknell-forest.gov.uk If you would like further information, please email the contracts team, or call 01344 351601. The new proposed model will ensure that the support and care delivered in people’s own homes can: • Support people to regain or attain independence to an optimum level and decrease the need for paid support • Maximise and maintain people to live independently for as long as possible • Support people to achieve their identified individual outcomes • Decrease isolation and improve health and wellbeing. • Respond to changing needs and demands e.g. facilitating a timely discharge from hospital • Improve quality within services to support people at home • Develop links and provide access to the local community and voluntary sector organisations • Provide access to assistive technology to maximise independence. • Provide value for money and address the containment of costs Places are restricted, so please book early to avoid disappointment.
