Postvention - Bereavement Support Service to NHS Bath and North East Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire Integrated Care Board (BSW ICB)

NHS Bath and North East Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire Integrated Care board (ICB) is seeking to secure a Prime Provider who has the capability and capacity to deliver Postvention Bereavement Services to residents or people who are registered with a GP, within the boundaries of Swindon and Wiltshire. A core feature of service provision will be the continuous involvement of people with lived experience to inform and influence ongoing transformation and development. This will be achieved through not only formal opportunities but also through comprehensive analysis of data and outcomes related to people seen within the services. Access Information will be gathered by the service provider and uploaded into the Mental Health Services Dataset (MHSDS). This will, as a minimum, allow number of contacts (at patient level) to be measured. Through joint work with partners and using outputs from the MHSDS, the provider will demonstrate how their service offer has provided timely access to the service and, where relevant, timely transfer to other partners. This will include: waiting time to first contact, waiting time to first intervention and waiting time for any onward intervention required. They will monitor this quarterly in conjunction with commissioners or more frequently if required. At first contact, staff will be expected to conduct a support conversation with the individual. This support conversation will establish individual goals and anticipated outcomes that the person will be supported to work towards. This will be recorded on the agreed patient record in order that the information follows the person and they only have to tell their story once. TUPE is likely to apply. The contract term will be for 3 years with an optional extension of any period up to 1 year. The contract value is £61,600.00 per annum giving a contract value of £184,800.00 for the initial contract period and £246,400.00 if the full extension period is adopted. The new service will commence on the 1st November 2025. This exercise is being carried out by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioner.
