Older People's Dementia Respite at Home Service

Tender description

The London Borough of Bromley (“the Council”) is inviting tenders for the provision of high quality Respite at Homes Services for people with dementia, including the young onset dementia, enabling them to remain living at home as members of the community and reducing the need for admission to long-term care. It also offers an alternative care/support for the ‘cared for person’ to enable the carer to have a break from caring. The service will operate to the following service aims: • To respond to the needs of all Service Users and their carers including individual cultural and religious needs; • To provide staff with the skills and methods to work effectively with Service Users; • To adapt and develop the range of activities and services on offer to meet the needs of the user group; • To develop links with other agencies, both statutory and non-statutory to the benefit of service users.
