West Cheshire Wellbeing Service

Tender description

West Cheshire CCG wishes to procure a new Wellbeing Service across the West Cheshire CCG area. This will be an holistic service that works with patients in their own homes and at GP practices helping them to build personal resilience in self-managing their health and wellbeing. The Wellbeing service will be designed to support adults who are registered with practices in West Cheshire Clinical Commissioning Group, with one or more long term conditions to resolve their non-medical needs and improve their ability to effectively self-manage their conditions. The service will provide support, signposting and advice to improve the wellbeing of those patients with long term health conditions; to address social, and non-medical issues that are causing them to access health services inappropriately. As well as supporting those with long term conditions to improve the management of their condition. The service will be based around our nine GP cluster groups, each containing four or five practices and deliver an in-hours and extended hours service. The intended approach is to offer a caseload-style approach to advice, signposting and support, and where necessary, low level non-statutory advocacy support, to assist patients with a broader set of non-medical issues . The contract term is planned to be three years with the option of a two year extension at Commissioners discretion.
