Crisis Inreach pilot service

Description

Derbyshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, on behalf of Joined Up Care Derbyshire (JUCD), are seeking to procure a 15-month 'Crisis Inreach' pilot service for people aged 18+ with learning disabilities and who are autistic/neurodivergent who live independently and receive little to no support who may be reaching crisis point and are at risk of a mental health hospital admission or family/carer breakdown. The service will be part of our local hospital avoidance pathway to prevent clinically inappropriate hospital admissions and to provide credible alternatives to hospital in the community. The service will work closely with the local Intensive Support Team and the Specialist Autism Team to deliver non-clinical interventions to support service users whilst clinical support is mobilised and delivered. The service will be available across Derby and Derbyshire for 365 days per year, on a 24/7 basis and should be mobilised to support a person within 2 hours of their referral being received. The tender value is £400k for the duration. If you are interested in learning more about this opportunity, please contact tiffany.webster1@nhs.net for the full specification and application pack.
