Health and social work services

Tender description

The Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership is seeking a dynamic organisation(s) or partnerships of organisation(s), to deliver employability services across Glasgow City. The vast majority of studies have found that people suffering from mental health difficulties experience positive outcomes from participating in meaningful activity. We require a comprehensive range of day service provision designed to promote recovery, social inclusion, self-determination and to decrease social isolation. Proposed activity should focus on maximising service user independence and deliver a set of outcomes that enable service users to achieve and maintain recovery. Individual placement and support (IPS) is an evidence base model that aims to support individuals who have long term mental health conditions to secure paid employment opportunities. Job retention aims to help individuals retain employment if it is at risk whilst they are recovering from mental health difficulties by working with individuals and employers to achieve the best outcome.
