Tender description

The Authority has a requirement to provide Primary Health Care (PHC) services for Service personnel assigned or attached to Robertson Barracks, Swanton Morley for up to 500 personnel. The requirement includes the provision of services to Service personnel both by working as part of a Defence Primary Healthcare (DPHC) team at the DPHC Medical Centre, and by providing support in the form of availability for supply of telephone advice and a facility for same-day appointments from the Contractor's own Care Quality Commission (CQC) registered premises, which must be reachable by road from Swanton Morley within 30 minutes. 1. The provider must provide comprehensive primary health care (PHC) services for up to 500 permanent military personnel assigned to units at Robertson Barracks, Swanton Morley, Norfolk. This is in order to ensure that every Serviceman and woman enjoys a level of health that is appropriate for the tasks they are required to perform and to maximise the numbers of these personnel who are medically fit for their operational roles. The bulk of personnel will be resident within the Barracks and therefore the ideal provider will be able to satisfy patient contact within 30 minutes of being contacted by MOD.
