description

Calderdale, Kirklees and Wakefield Health and Social Care partners are working together to commission 6 designated Covid-19 nursing/EMI and complex beds with the option to increase further, up to 12, as demand dictates.

It is not feasible to discharge COVID positive patients back to their normal place of residence including care homes for risk of the infection spreading. The strategy of not discharging back to homes has seen a low number of deaths and spread of infection at the height of the pandemic.

A separate, additional bed capacity is therefore required to support this cohort enabling:

Rapid discharge of COVID positive patients who are medically fit for discharge from hospital and reducing the number of delayed transfers of care (supporting the local plans)
Bed capacity within the local system for COVID positive patients to mitigate:
any future wave and/or
a peak as we enter the summer period

Requirements

The service will:

Be provided within Kirklees, or its boundaries, and having good road links to the local Acute Hospitals (Calderdale Royal Hospital, Huddersfield Royal Infirmary, Pinderfields General Hospital)
The service will be provided by care home staff and supported by, therapies and a dedicated GP service

The Provider will:

Be CQC registered with a rating of at least good, or be able to reach this standard at service start
Be CQC approved as a Designated Covid bed setting, or be assessed within 48 hours at service start
Be a nursing, EMI or Complex bed provider with 24 hour access to nursing care
Accept referrals from 8am - 7pm, 7 days a week within 0 - 2 hours
Receive patients on the same day, up to 2 individuals per day
Update the capacity tracker at least daily
Ensure all staff are Covid vaccinated, including bank staff
Work with the Infection Protection Control teams

The price per bed is to be based on circa £1165.
