Market Testing - Supporting People at Home: Homecare and Reablement

Tender description

At Camden Council we're reviewing our care and support at home for both ongoing (homecare) and shorter term (reablement) services. We're interested in trying new ways of working in order to best support our residents, deliver against our strategic plan 'Supporting People, Connecting Communities' and enable our residents to live independently in their homes. All care delivered in Camden should be strengths-based, with the person at the centre of our decision making. To do this, we are seeking feedback on our plans to procure two reablement contracts to support us to deliver short term care in people's homes and one ongoing care and support contract to deliver ongoing care in Camden. In Camden, our homecare and reablement support is organised in neighbourhoods and providers will support our residents on a local neighbourhood footprint. Each neighbourhood has a lead provider that has a key role in developing networks of care with health and care partners across both statutory and voluntary sector. To operate this contract, it is essential that providers will; - have a branch or office in Camden or near the boarder - contribute to the council's objective of employing locally and - commit to pay a minimum of London Living Wage to all staff (currently at £11.95 per hour) - contribute towards travel costs of care staff Please read and complete the attached questionnaire and return to david.walsh@camden.gov.uk by 2.00pm 24th January 2023.
