Tower Hamlets CCG - Community Learning Disability Service

Descriptions

We require a provider of specialist health services for people with a learning disability resident in Tower Hamlets. The service will deliver high quality and safe services to meet the needs of young people, adults and older people with learning disabilities, and those who display behaviours that challenge services. The service will be delivered to those living independently, with families, in residential care homes, supported living, prisons and in hospitals. Services will need to proactively address the health inequalities experienced by people with a learning disability and ensure access to the service which best meets the individual’s needs, regardless of the presence of a learning disability; including mental health, community health, primary and secondary care services. Services will develop interventions that take into account and effectively address nationally identified causes of premature deaths of people with a learning disability.
