- Provide recovery-focused environments that support service users to build independence, engage with activities of daily living and remain complaint with treatment
- Provide social care support, particularly in relation to benefits and housing process
- Refer/signpost patients to activities within the local community that will support recovery
- Provide support to service users with discharge goals and ensure timely discharge is being facilitated from the step down project so it can continue to support flow
- Work jointly with CNWL Teams and other relevant organisations to support referrals, patient care and discharge planning, and participate in/lead MDT Professionals meetings. ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** complete - **CPV codes:** 85323000 - **Delivery regions:** UKI - **Description:** The current contract was extended through the approval of a Single Tender Waiver (STW) as the Authority was unable to complete the planned procurement and award a new contract.
