Opportunity overview
Hertfordshire County Council (the Council) is carrying out PME in relation to the Development of Nursing Home Care Provision in Hertfordshire programme. The Council will consider the feedback received to shape the Council’s options, requirements and further decision making. For the avoidance of doubt, this stage of the project is not part of a formal procurement process, and the Council is not committing, at this stage, to carrying out such a process. The Council has created a detailed care provider prospect which is published as part of the PME outlining the opportunity and programme aims, as well as signposting key areas where care provider feedback can play a central role in shaping the nursing homes service model and ensuring they are designed and operated to meet the needs of our residents now and in the future. Please refer to these documents for more detailed information on the programme. At the heart of this programme is Hertfordshire County Council's Connected Lives approach. We believe that people requiring nursing care, should continue to have opportunities to maintain relationships, make choices about their lives, participate in their communities and enjoy the best possible quality of life. The Council is progressing a Social Investment Model to support the delivery of additional nursing home capacity in Hertfordshire. Under this innovative model, investors and developers would fund and build 6-8 new homes, the Council would enter into long-term lease arrangements for completed buildings, and the homes would then be sub-leased to registered care providers responsible for delivering high quality nursing dementia care with an agreed number of beds allocated for LA use at its normal fee rates. The Council are aiming to understand how we can expand nursing care bed capacity, improve long term sustainability of both our provider and our wider market, and ensure our residents can access modern, affordable and high quality accommodation that meets their needs local to where they live and have a home for life wherever possible. Participation or non-participation in the PME shall not prevent any supplier participating in a potential future procurement, nor is it intended that any information supplied as part of the PME shall place any supplier at an advantage in a potential procurement process. For further information, please see the PME Document, Prospectus Document and Questionnaire.
