Its purpose was to support the newly established Specialist Perinatal Mental Health Teams in using routine outcome measures as part of everyday practice. After the manual's launch, CORC was approached by several services to deliver more in-depth training on ROMs; these were delivered as full day sessions, tailored to the needs of the service and the measurement tools they had chosen to use. The feedback was that this expansion on the learning available in the manual was extremely helpful and added depth and richness to the understanding of the workforce beyond that which could be gleaned by the text alone. AFNCCF is the only supplier with the requisite expertise and experience to assist HEE in fulfilling Perinatal Mental Health Mandate deliverables and actions of UK government policy including the Long-Term Plan and People Plan, in relation to ROMs. The financial envelope for the contract is £21,000 For the Specification, Contract and the Case for Direct Award please access the portal at: https://health-family-contract-search.secure.force.com/?SearchType=Projects Please access the portal for all documents.
