Daytime supports for older people and people with dementia offer a wide and diverse range of supports including social interactions, healthy meals, activities, personal care support such as hairdressing and bathing, exercise classes and these can be provided in a variety of settings.

Day time supports do not include care at home but can be provided within a residential care home as well as in specialised centres and other community centres. A day time support is defined as an establishment where one or more of the following services are provided for more than four hours during the day:

Personal care or personal support with or without practical assistance;
Reablement activities;
Respite; and/or
Therapeutic activities.

It does not include Luncheon Clubs, Shared Lives, Domiciliary/Homecare and befriending services

To gain a place on the Provider List, Service Provider will need to satisfy the selection requirements, have no grounds for exclusion and confirm they meet and will maintain the Minimum Quality Standards throughout the period of validity to be added to the Provider List.

The Provider List does not provide any guarantee of business to any individual Service Provider. Now the Provider List has commenced, any Service User can access the Provider List and choose which daytime support they wish to attend from the Authority's website. Referrals can be made directly by the Service User, family and carers or via a social worker and the Authority's Care Navigation Service.

An engagement event focusing on the future of older people's daytime support took place on 12th June 2017, please see tender documents on the Sourcing Portal for notes.

The Provider List will be open for 10 years and Service Providers are invited to submit an application at anytime from 1st June 2018 using RFQ number 15199149. Please see the link below to access the tender documents, where you will also see timescales for evaluation.
