Recommissioning Domiciliary Care Services

Descriptions

Bridgend County Borough Council (BCBC) will shortly be recommissioning its Domiciliary Care Services and its officers are keen to attract a number of quality domiciliary care providers who are interested in working with us. Our plan is to remodel our existing Framework Agreement by introducing more of an outcomes-focused approach to the way in which Individuals with an assessed need receive their care and support.In order to further develop these plans, BCBC is looking to carry out a market testing event with independent domiciliary care providers to gain a provider’s perspective on the new service model that BCBC will be looking to introduce from December 2021.The market testing event(s) will be facilitated by BCBC using Microsoft Teams, and will take place on Tuesday 25 May 2021 between 10am and 12 noon. Due to the number of attendees anticipated, attendance will be limited to one person per organisation.To enable us to determine numbers, could you please email Julia Parry with your request to attend at Julia.Parry@bridgend.gov.uk by close of play on Wednesday 19 May 2021. Once numbers have been collated, Julia will then send a Microsoft Teams invite to those nominated, which will contain a link to join the market testing event.Getting a provider’s perspective on our ideas and plans is an absolutely vital component to help us understand if the new approach and service model is the right thing to do and also viable moving forward, so please attend and share your thoughts with us.
