What is being bought

Published requirement description

PCH are seeking a contractor to work with Ealing Council to improve flow through the present in house supported living provision and make the case for future investment.

This would involve:

  • Identifying opportunities to improve flow, particularly for people receiving short term support for mental health needs.
  • Review the use and effectiveness of unplanned respite care
  • Developing a business case for investment in infrastructure and housing stock, including options for updating or redeveloping existing sites.

To Note; a related piece of support is also being sought to work with their existing in house reablement offer to develop a practical plan for strengthening skills and broadening the scope of provision. The contractors for both pieces are expected to establish and maintain touch points and collaborate to enable a ‘joined up’ outcome for Ealing. Alternatively, we welcome suitably qualified and experienced contractors to bid for both pieces of work.
