Tender description

The Home from Hospital service provides short-term practical and emotional support (excluding personal care) for up to six weeks, seven days a week, for Wiltshire residents aged 18+ who are being discharged from hospital. The service supports a safe and smooth transition home, helping people regain confidence and independence and reducing the risk of readmission. It supports discharges on Pathway Zero (returning home independently with no further support) and Pathway One (returning home with homecare), with support gradually tapered as recovery progresses to help avoid long-term support wherever possible. The new contract is scheduled to commence on 1 July 2027.
