Cambridgeshire County Council Residential Services for Adults with a Learning Disability

About this contract

Cambridgeshire County Council has set up an Open Framework for Residential Services for Adults with a Learning Disability for a period of 10 years starting 1st May 2018. This means that the Framework will re-open at intervals to allow for new and previously unsuccessful providers to apply to join. IMPORTANT: The current round will close for submissions on the 4th September 2019 12:00 midday. Providers must recognise the role they play in ensuring that people with learning disabilities experience the good health and wellbeing necessary to live a meaningful life. Providers should be aware that there are higher incidences of long term conditions, and other health problems, experienced by people with learning disabilities and prioritises preventative and palliative services and support to minimise potential impacts to service users. As such staff must have sufficient and appropriate training and skills to effectively engage people with learning disabilities in health promotion. The Council is trying to move towards a model that helps people to live as independently as possible at all levels of need, so the focus is on progression. Peterborough City Council may call-off this Framework for service users they have assessed as eligible using their own criteria.
