Vinney Green is a 24 bed Youth Justice Board unit meaning it accepts young people from the courts. They will occasionally take children on a welfare order or under PACE (Police and Criminal Evidence). PACE allows for a young person to remain in custody awaiting a court appearance and is therefore only in the unit a matter of hours. Vinney Green is located in South Gloucestershire and is owned and run by the local authority. Education in the mainstay activity and health interventions need to work around this regime. As a secure home/school inspection falls to OFSTED rather than the CQC emphasising that the unit is not a healthcare environment. The service being commissioned includes: • Primary care • Mental health • Emotional wellbeing • Substance misuse • Infection prevention and control • Immunisations and vaccinations Dentistry is accessed through community appointments. Optometry is subcontracted through the local authority but is likely to be brought into the new contract. Speech and Language input is commissioned separately through Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire (BNSSG) Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG). Services will be delivered in line with nationally mandated specifications: - Physical Health Care and Intervention - Substance Misuse - Emotional and mental Health within a Framework of Integrated Care (SECURE STAIRS) - Overarching Specification - Healthcare and Enabling specification that sets out the local authority management expectations The service will also be compliant with the Healthcare Standards for Children in Secure Settings. The maximum total contract value for the service will be £3,625,000. The contract duration will be 5 years, due to commence on 1st April 2018 TUPE may apply.
