## Description
The 2023 National Audit of Inpatient Falls (NAIF) report on 2022 clinical data identified that more than 60,000 people sustained a femoral fracture in England and Wales in 2022 (NHFD) due to a fall. Of these, 2,033 occurred in inpatient settings.
Falls prevention services aim to reduce people's chance of falling by tackling risk factors, improving strength and balance whilst allowing people to remain well and live independently at home. 
The services aim to:
• Provide falls support planning and risk assessments for individuals and their homes,
• Develop person centred plans to maximise older people's potential for independent
living,
• Reduce the risks of falls and injuries by improving strength and balance,
• Reduce hospital admissions as a result of falls,
• Educate and raise falls prevention awareness with multi-organisations, agencies, care homes and the public,
• Deliver interventions for falls preventions in both home and Residential Care settings
The overall aim of the Framework Agreement is to provide Relevant Authorities with a fully compliant solution for Falls Prevention, Rehabilitation and Recovery Services to supplement the delivery of patient care in line with the NHS' core Key Performance Indicators and standards. 
This Framework will be formed of three Lots:
Lot 1 - Falls prevention services
Lot 2 - Post fall rehabilitation and recovery services
Lot 3 - Combination of all services
The Framework has been established under The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 and The Health Services (Provider Selection Regime) (Wales) Regulations 2025 (and as amended) (together the PSR) for use by all
Relevant Authorities (and any future successors to these organisations). 
"Relevant Authority" is defined in section 12ZB(7) of the National Health Service Act 2006 and in section 10A(9) of the National Health Service (Wales) Act 2006. It means a combined authority, an integrated care board, a local authority in England, NHS England, an NHS foundation trust or an NHS trust established under section 25 of the National Health Service Act 2006, a county council or county borough council in Wales, a local
health board established under section 11 of the National Health Service (Wales) Act 2006, a National Health Service trust established under section 18 of the National Health
Service (Wales) Act 2006, or a special health authority established under section 22 of the National Health Service (Wales) Act 2006.
For the avoidance of doubt, any successor bodies of any of the above entities shall be entitled to place Orders and shall be deemed Relevant Authorities for the purposes of this Framework.
The term will be 4 years from the commencement.
In accordance with Regulation 17 of The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 and Regulation 17 of The Health Services (Provider Selection Regime) (Wales) Regulations 2025, the Framework will be open to applications from new potential Providers during the Term...
