## About this tender

PCH provided Ealing with support to look at working age adults at home (July 25 – Feb 26). This programme aims to help the council understand local drivers for activity and spend relating to long term care for working age adults and equipped it with the necessary insight to embark on review and change. The outputs and outcomes of this work would be available to the contractor.

Ealing are now ready to begin the process of reviewing their in-house provision to create a business case for further investment in reablement and enablement provision for adults under 65 years.

We are seeking a contractor(s) that will:

Work with Ealing’s in house reablement offer to develop a practical plan for strengthening skills and broadening the scope of provision.

### Objective

To propose an evidence-based set of recommendations that will assist Ealing to ensure its reablement offer better meets the needs of working age adults and helps prevent people drifting into long term adult social care.

Key elements include:

- Exploring how a stronger reablement and recovery focus could reduce reliance on long term care particularly for people following a period of poor mental health or a hospital admission.
- Identifying current skills and knowledge gaps of staff, what skills will be needed in any future model and a workforce plan as to how these could be addressed.
- Recommending adaptations to existing services and support mechanisms so they are more responsive to working age adults
- Further work on functional occupational therapy assessments for people with learning disabilities, autistic people, and people with mental health needs, including support to sustain employment.

To note, the council will also be supported to undertake a review of current supported Living/extra care provision. Findings from this work will be shared at touch points with the contractor (as a related aspect of support) and used to strengthen the findings and recommendations from this work.
