Opportunity overview

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 new contract is scheduled to commence on 1 July 2027.
