The group of patients have needed to be placed outside the catchment area of their own GP practice, so with agreement with local practices an alternative service is commissioned to provide their ongoing clinical oversight. Approximately 800 people are cared for in this way over the year, and approximately 140-180 on the caseload at any one time, with placements generally no more than six weeks although some considerably shorter and others longer and sometimes leading to long term placement. Patients can be cared for in any home in the city, but at the time of the expression of interest there are some people in 'spot purchased beds but also groups residing in: • Ashley Manor Care Home • Woodland Villa Care Home • Wisteria Care Home Roborough (DE mild/moderate assessment beds) And then in April the Short-Term Care Centre will be opened in Mount Gould. The service is provided by the incumbent for Plymouth. A GP is provided from 9am - 6pm daily, Monday to Friday. The service sees all new temporary residents for intermediate care AND end of life care within 24hours of arrival at the home (Mondays-Fridays). The service undertakes any bloods, other tests, referrals and completes a discharge summary for the patient's own GP at the time of transfer back to their care. A significant amount of work is done by telephone and covid has encouraged more flexible ways of working, the requirement to undertake a face to visit has been relaxed if contact made, and a decision made regarding a plan of care within the timescale. Interested providers are invited to complete a short questionnaire as part of an information gathering exercise by NHS Devon CCG to inform their strategic direction and decision making. The questionnaire is available to download and complete within the Additional Information section (II.2.14) of this PIN. The deadline for completing the questionnaire is 12.00 noon on the 11th of April 2022. It is envisaged that the contract terms will commence on the 1st of October 2022 for 2 years with an option to extend for a further 2 years. The anticipated contract value is £1.200,000 excl. VAT for the full term. It is anticipated that the annual value will be £300,000 excl. VAT If you require any further assistance, please contact scwcsu.clinical.procurement@nhs.net This process is being managed by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioner(s). ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** planned - **CPV codes:** 85121100 - **Delivery regions:** UKK - **Description:** NHS Devon CCG are inviting expressions of interest from organisations interested in providing primary medical care and visiting services for a cohort of people who are receiving intermediate care in care homes in Plymouth.
