Strategic Lead Provider Services - Reablement

Reablement is a short-term, intensive, person-centred service designed to help people regain or develop the skills and confidence needed to live independently. It focuses on doing with people rather than for them, supporting recovery after illness, hospital discharge, or a period of increased need.

The service is typically provided for up to six weeks and is non-chargeable, with a strong emphasis on:

• Promoting independence and reducing long-term reliance on care
• Supporting people to learn or relearn daily living skills
• Delivering goal-based, outcomes-focused support with regular reviews
• Working closely with health professionals to support recovery and rehabilitation
• Planning early for exit from the service, either to independence or ongoing support where needed

Where individuals are assessed as having ongoing needs, they are stepped down into the Council's Support at Home services.

This contract will be split into 11 lots. The Lead Provider is responsible for delivering all Reablement care in that area. Providers on this service will be expected to use the Council's Reablement app to set goals and record progress.
