description
West Sussex County Council are asking providers to respond to this exercise to support the gathering of information. The exercise is being undertaken for information purposes only and will be used by West Sussex County Council's (WSCC) contracts and commissioning service to better understand provider interest and ability to provide services that the Council are exploring commissioning. This document does not form a legally binding contract and is not a statement of intent to enter into a contract with any provider.
Please note that this is not the commencement of a procurement process and Service Providers are taking part in soft market testing through this market engagement and are not bidding to provide a service at this stage. Should any procurement arise following this engagement and market testing exercise, a separate notice and information will be provided.
WSCC are inviting views from providers of residential nursing care that deliver dementia nursing care bed services. The Council's aim is to explore potential interest in relation to the provision of a block contract to provide dementia nursing care services in the northern area of West Sussex. Providers are asked to give their feedback on the points below and to confirm whether this would be of commercial interest to them.
The services would require an understanding and experience of delivering dementia nursing care in a residential setting, including managing customers with multiple complex needs (MCNs) and/or behaviours that challenge services.
This market testing exercise aims to obtain providers' views on the potential to deliver the following services:
| • | A block of dementia nursing care beds in the Northern area (see map on the attached document). Providers are asked to submit: |
| o | The volume of beds which they could commit to delivering as a block contract from Winter 2024/25 |
| o | An anticipated weekly or annual price for delivery of a block contract, excluding Funded Nursing Care (FNC), from an available date on or after 1 January 2025. WSCC is looking at what competitive rates can be offered for a service in this area which provides a guarantee of business for a volume of beds. |
To support the Council with our information gathering, if you would be interested in providing a block of nursing dementia beds as set out in the attached document, please can you complete the table and questions 2 - 5 within the attached document and submit your completed document via email to adultscommissioning@westsussex.gov.uk.
