About this contract

Ipswich and East Suffolk and West Suffolk CCGs are working with Suffolk County Council to commission a Suffolk-wide peri-diagnosis Dementia Service, to start in April 2017. Commissioners want to develop a model that complements the Integrated Health and Social Care principles of delivering secondary and tertiary prevention, crisis delay/mitigation, self-empowerment, locality focused, improved and simplified accessible advice and information encouraging independent community based ‘living well’ and improved outcomes. The service will be for anyone with diagnosed or suspected dementia or who care for them, both professionally or personally. The service will have a complete understanding of the Suffolk system wide offer of services and systems of support. High quality advice and consistent advice and information will be offered to anyone accessing the service appropriate to their needs at the time of contact. The service will help individuals’ understanding of the needs of the person with dementia and develop their own resilience and help them stay connected with their local community and networks. This will be a developmental model, with the future provider working with commissioners over the lifetime of the contract to review and improve the service offered and move towards a more flexible outcome based contracting model.
