Home from Hospital Domiciliary Care Service for Rotherham Residents

About

Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council awarded a contract to Dale Care Limited for the provision of a Home Care and Support - Home from Hospital Service.

The service facilitates timely discharge from hospital for individuals who would benefit from a period of reablement but face no immediate capacity in the reablement service.

It provides a domiciliary care service for a temporary period, typically up to seven days, until an ongoing service is determined.

The provider must utilise a strength-based approach to encourage independence and promote wellbeing in preparation for the reablement service.

The service is accessed by Rotherham residents over 18 who have been assessed as suitable for referral to the Council's Enabling Service and may experience dementia, learning disability, sensory impairment, autistic spectrum disorders, mental and emotional distress, severe physical impairment, and/or acquired brain injury.

The contract value is £337,841.14.
