Minutes:

Officers introduced the report which sort approval to extend the current Reablement Service contract for 6 months to allow Adult Social Care Commissioners time to recommission the Reablement Service. As well as, incorporating the Rapid Response Service into

the Reablement Service and tender both services as one opportunity to the open market. They confirmed that the contract would be tendered for £1.4m with a £1.5m ceiling. They confirmed that unlikely previously the contract would be paid on a performance basis noting that previously the value of the contract had not always been meet.

 

The Executive Member for Health, Wellbeing and Adult Social Care welcomed the report, she noted that the Council was not getting full value from the current contract and it was vital the Council got the reprocurement correct. She highlighted the growing number of those with care needs in the city. She welcomed the additional £1.5m funding provided by central government but noted that this did not meet the challenges posed in adult social care, therefore, it was vital that the Council got the best value for money when commissioning its contracted work.
