Overview
This tender is for the provision of prevention and early intervention for people who are living with mental ill health.
The service objective is to prevent mental health complications escalating into longer-term difficulties, supporting people to be as independent as possible where the overarching aims are to reduce the number of people accessing social care services earlier than necessary, reduce hospital admission, prevent the need for long-term care, enhance independence and self-reliance, promote choice and control, improve people’s quality of life, improve financial resilience and support carers/family where appropriate.
The Enablement Service delivers short-term targeted, one-to-one support.
This is a 12-week programme of support, typically providing a minimum of 5 hours per week, focussed on developing daily living skills, confidence and independence, widened access to include people with learning disabilities, physical disabilities and acquired brain injuries, ensuring services align with the Care Act 2014 prevention and wellbeing duties.
The Mental Wellbeing Drop-In Service provides community-based, open-access mental wellbeing support.
This service operates six days per week, across multiple community venues in North, South and Central Solihull, providing low-level mental wellbeing support and acting as a preventive and step-down offer from statutory services.
It is envisaged that one contract for a Single Service Provider or Lead Service Provider with partner/sub-contractors will be enacted for the Enablement Service as a cost-and-volume element and for the Mental Wellbeing Drop-In Service element, a block arrangement, to ensure a seamless transfer between provision for Service Users.
