About
Buckinghamshire County Council awarded a contract to The British Red Cross for the provision of a Home from Hospital Transport, Settlement and Support service.
The service supports people being discharged from hospital and helps prevent admission and readmission by enabling service users to return home safely and with dignity, regain confidence after a hospital or A&E stay, promote independence, reduce dependency on intensive home care packages, and lower the likelihood of hospital readmission or long-term care.
The contract value is £545,000, with an initial term of 1 year and 3 months and a possible extension of 1 further year subject to performance and funding availability.
TUPE may apply.
