Homecare Market Engagement Event in Southend-on-Sea

Southend-on-Sea City Council will shortly be seeking tenders from suitably experienced providers for the provision of our Care at Home services.

As part of a wider engagement and consultation, we are inviting stakeholders to a market engagement event to inform the service model and service specification for the provision of this service.

The provision of local high-quality "Care at Home" services is a top priority for Southend City Council. The overarching ambition for the next five years and beyond, is to support individuals in maintaining their independence and living within their community for as long as possible. Southend City Council defines "Care at Home" as comprising three essential services:

The provider will be required to deliver an innovative approach to achieve positive outcomes, enhance care, and maintain service quality. An inclusive care approach that goes beyond traditional home services, which are outcome focused to encourage flexible care management for positive independence outcomes.

The event will be held in person and will include a presentation from our Head of All Age Strategic Commissioning to outline the service and talk through the upcoming tender opportunity.

Date: 19th September 2024
