What is being bought

The successful Supplier(s) will provide suitably qualified and experienced personnel to monitor high risk individuals who have been admitted to hospital (or other NHS locations) and have been identified as violent, aggressive or lacking capacity. These personnel are required in addition to the normal staff working within the NHS setting. These services will ensure the safety and wellbeing of all patients, staff and visitors, and ensure the hospital environment is safe, welcoming and accessible for all. As part of the service, the Supplier's staff will also ensure the buildings and often valuable equipment within them are protected.
