Description

The Keyworking Function (KWF) has been developed as a response to the NHS England & NHS Improvement Long Term Plan (LTP) commitment that by 2023/24, children and young people with a learning disability, autism, or both, with the most complex needs will have a designated Keyworker: implementing the recommendations made by Dame Christine Lenehan.
These are our children: a review by Dame Christine Lenehan.
Initially, keyworker support has been provided to children and young people with a learning disability and/or who are autistic, to avoid unnecessary admission or overly lengthy stays in mental health or specialist learning disability settings, and to keep them and their families safe and well in their community. Every ICS now has an operational, or soon to be operational, keyworking service, funded by new money from the NHS Long Term Plan delivered through each of the seven NHS England regions. Some areas have already extended this offer to young people up to the age of 25. From 2023/24, it is expected that all ICSs will offer their keyworking services to young people up to the age of 25. In addition, by 2024, NHS England are due to deliver the "Keyworker Code of Practice".

Whole School Body Image Training and Workshops

The Council's Public Health team is seeking to commission an evidence-based programme as part of a preventative approach to establish body respect early in life and address concerns that children and young people (CYP) may already have. The programme should promote positive body image and encourage feeling comfortable and confident in one's own body, supporting healthy choices and overall wellbeing. It should also incorporate elements that foster respect for diversity, self-esteem, and movement for enjoyment rather than appearance, helping CYP to develop lifelong habits that prioritise health and wellbeing over unrealistic body ideals. The Council are therefore seeking proposals from providers to deliver a whole school training package which empowers children and young people (CYP) to respect their bodies and those of others. The package will include direct work with CYP, delivering CPD to school staff and an offer for families. The programme will have three key aims: •To upskill and enhance the understanding and confidence of school staff and system partners to support CYP to have body respect for themselves and others. •To explore and improve CYP's feelings and attitudes towards their own and others' bodies and appearances by establishing whole school inclusive cultures around body respect. •To provide parents/carers with information that empowers them to have supportive discussions with CYP around body image and respect and nurture positive relationships with food and movement from an early age. To support the roll out and align with existing work, the provider will also deliver bespoke training/awareness sessions for the Public Health team and key system partners such as school nurses and youth workers.

Outsourced Arthroplasty and Spinal Surgery - 85100000

The activity relates to carrying our surgery for patients who have been waiting for more than 35 weeks on the waiting lists of specific surgeons in the hospital. There is insuffiicient capacity in existing NHS core hours to carry out the surgery for these patients and so we are seeking additional capacity from outside of the NHS. The activity in scope of the outsourcing relates to specific surgoens who have practising privileges to operate privately at this particular Independent Sector Provider - Circle Meriden. The advantages of ensuring the continuity of the surgeon is that the patient will not require to be reviewed as an outpatient and will not require diagnostic tests to be repeated - this saves both time and money, and is less demanding on the patient in terms of taking time out to attend repeat additional and avoidable outpatient attendances - which in some cases can also involve radiological diagnostic investigations. We are seeking similar outsourcing arrangements at other ISPs where the same circumstances apply - the determining factors being continuity of carer for the patient, geographical proximity and transport links, and length of time that patients would be required to wait.
