Descriptions

Health Education England are putting out this notice as a PIN (Prior Information Notice) with a view to completing a Direct Award to Centre for Perioperative Care. The case for direct award can be found on the tender portal. HEE is seeking a provider to provide curriculum development reflecting the service pathway, for a multi-disciplinary Credential in Perioperative Care. HEE believes that it is highly unlikely for any other supplier to be able to provide the following skills/tools provided by CPOC as a current supplier for the following reasons: •The CPOC is a cross-organisational, multidisciplinary collaboration of healthcare professional organisations committed to the promotion and development of quality perioperative care. The CPOC partners include the Royal College of Anaesthetists, Royal College of Physicians, Royal College of Surgeons of England, Royal College of Nursing, Royal College of General Practitioners, Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, Association of Anaesthetists and the Faculty of Public Health. •A multi-specialty faculty will be developed to support this work programme. CPOC, with its representation from the Royal Colleges and other professional associations, would be able to draw upon expertise from across the perioperative pathway, from community services to secondary care and from all relevant disciplines. This faculty, working with HEE, will be able to access further expertise from affiliated organisations and individuals for specific aspects of the programme. •CPOC has already worked with a wide range of stakeholders including NHS England, to deliver improved perioperative care. As such the organisation has demonstrated credibility through supporting and embedding effective change in service delivery and education and training. To further deliver high quality education and training in perioperative care, CPOC proposes working with HEE to develop a programme addressing the needs of both the medical and allied health professional workforce, in order to support delivery of sustainable and resilient clinical services. •The CPOC have submitted a business plan and proposal to deliver this multidisciplinary credential. The case for the development of this credential has been signed off by DEQ SLT and meets a mandate deliverable. https://health-family-contract-search.secure.force.com/?SearchType=Projects All communications should be made via the messaging function on the Health Family eTendering portal.
