Description

Cheshire West and Chester Council intend to merge previously two separate services (Care at Home and Extra Care Housing) into one Service to deliver on the Council's commitment to commissioning on a Strengths-Based and Outcome-Focused approach to deliver high-quality services and meaningful outcomes for people within the Borough. 

Providers delivering these services will work with the Council, with residents in receipt of care and with relevant stakeholders to evolve these care provisions, focusing on an enabling and reablement approach 'doing with not doing for', achieving  Care Act identified outcomes, and enabling people to live a great life within their local communities. 

The new service will be delivered within seven geographical localities across the borough which is reflective of our Community Social Work Teams to strengthen working relationships between the Council's Social Work and Occupational Therapy Practitioners and the Care Provider's workforce.    

Each of the seven localities will have one Principal Provider (previously referred to as Prime Providers) and a number of Associate Providers (previously referred to as Framework Providers).  
Each locality has at least one Extra Care Housing Scheme as part of its community.  The Principal Provider will lead and deliver all care and support hours required within their awarded scheme from day one, plus a percentage of the Care at Home hours required within the local locality.  As the borough is a geographical mixture of both urban and rural areas, each locality is impacted by differing levels of need and demand.  Therefore, the percentage of Care at Home hours will be determined by the need and demand within each locality and care hours allocated to Principal Providers will be expected to grow naturally as current care packages evolve and new ones are commissioned.   

All remaining Care at Home hours available will be allocated to the Associated Providers - see DN741081 for tender pack for Associates

Re-Opening of Mental Health Independence and Support Framework

The purpose of this framework is to offer support to those people living in Sheffield who have a severe mental health problem that is having a significant effect on their health and wellbeing. Mental health needs are increasing, economic and environmental factors are taking their toll. The aim of this framework is to address some of these issues before they can develop, offering support at the right time and enabling a return to independence as quickly as is possible. For others it may be ongoing support at a level that allows as much autonomy as the individual can manage. Services will be available to individuals who reside in Sheffield who have a diagnosis of severe mental illness and have eligible needs under the Care Act 2014. Once an individual's needs have been assessed as being eligible for Social Care funding, they will be allocated a package of support. This support must meet the needs set out in the Care Act (2014) Assessment or Section 117 assessment. It is the responsibility of the assessor to decide what level of support will be required for each individual. This decision will benefit all parties who are then able to understand and tailor support to the individuals' current abilities and needs. The level of support will be determined at assessment stage and will fit into one of the two categories: LOT 1 - Standard Support 1.1 Outreach 1.2 Supported Accommodation LOT 2 - Enhanced Support 2.1 Outreach 2.2 Supported Accommodation
