Framework for Standard Homecare

Descriptions

Later in 2025 the Council will be requesting bids for Service Providers to be awarded a place on a framework to provide Standard Home Care (domiciliary care) Services. Overview of Requirement: Standard Home Care Definition: The Care Quality Commission (CQC) definition of Home Care and Support are as follows: "These services provide personal care for people living in their own homes. The needs of people using the services may vary greatly, but packages of care are designed to meet individual circumstances. The person is visited at various times of the day or, in some cases, care is provided over a full 24-hour period. Where care is provided intermittently throughout the day the person may live independently of any continuous support or care between visits." Customers of Home Care Services will: • Be residents of Derby City • Be over the age of 18 years • Have eligible care or support needs as defined by the Council • Require Home Care as defined above Customers may have complex and multiple support needs. Service Providers will need to develop personalised Support Plans that identify clear and quantifiable ways that they will support Customers to achieve their individual outcomes and remain independent in their own home. Customers that will require this Service will have a wide range of needs that may include one or a combination of the following broad headings (please note this list is not exhaustive): • Physical disability or frailty, • Learning disability • Mental Health • Sensory Disabilities and/or Communication needs • Dementia or other cognitive difficulties THIS IS NOT AN INVITATION TO TENDER.
