About

Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council is seeking supplier feedback on the future procurement of a Sandwell Wrap Around Service to reduce hospital delays, prevent unnecessary long-term care placements, improve independence outcomes, and provide coordinated person-centred support. The service will deliver a wrap-around model of care with 24-hour support where required and agreed multidisciplinary team input for adults (18+) who are medically stable but need further assessment, monitoring or intervention outside an acute hospital or where needs cannot be met in their usual place of residence. The service will provide short-term support for up to 72 hours to help maintain borough capacity and support hospital avoidance. A preliminary market engagement event will take place on Wednesday 4 March, 10:00–11:00; email [email protected] by Monday 2 March, 11:00 with full name, job title, organisation, email and telephone number for each attendee to receive an online MS Teams invitation.
