        "description": "Sandwell Trusted Assessor Service. Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council wishes to appoint a single Provider to the ASC113 Sandwell Trusted Assessor Service to provide assessments for eligible individuals ready for discharge from hospital in Sandwell.\nPeople can sometimes wait too long for discharge from hospital resulting in poor experience of the health and care system and poorer outcomes. \nTrusted Assessor schemes are a national initiative designed to reduce delays when people are ready for discharge from hospital. Providers accept assessments carried out by suitably qualified 'Trusted Assessors' working under formal, written agreements.\nResearch has shown that delayed discharges can have a significant negative impact on people's well-being. There are also risks associated with premature or poorly planned discharges.\nThe use of a Trusted Assessor Service can reduce the numbers and waiting times of people awaiting discharge from hospital and help them to move from hospital back home or to another setting speedily, effectively and safely thereby improving patient experience, clinical safety and patient flow.\nThe Service will operate 7 days a week. The Specification, attached as Appendix 2 to the Invitation to Tender, details the aims of the service to be provided within the contract and the connections to other services in the community. \nThe Provider will be required to provide a high-quality service that aligns with the Council's vision for Adult Social Care.\nThe Trusted Assessor Service Agreement will commence on 1st April 2024 for an initial period of 2 years with the option of extending for up to a further 12 months.\nSuitably qualified and experienced persons and organisations can view the full tender documentation that includes the Invitation to Tender, which contains details of the evaluation criteria and methodology, and Tender Response Documents; detailed Specification(s) and a copy of the Council's standard Terms and Conditions of Agreement by registering on Sandwell's In-Tend Supplier Portal. Additional information: option to extend for a further twelve months from 01/04/2026 to 31/03/2027.\nThe Council will be using the In-Tend e-Tendering System for this Procurement exercise, please visit https://in-tendhost.co.uk/sandwellmbc to access the Sandwell MBC In-tend Supplier Portal. \nFrom here you will be able to register your company, express an interest in the opportunity, and gain immediate access to the ITT and other related documents.
