The Commissioner is considering a contract period of 3 years with an option (of the commissioner) to extend for period of up to 2 further years (3+2), this remains subject to further review. The service will provide an Out Of Hours District Nursing (OOH DN) service to housebound people over the age of 18 years in Brighton and Hove during the hours of 20:00 and 08:00 to ensure continuity of care to patients outside of normal business hours. This will include a handover with the PCN Community Nursing Teams (PCN - CNT) day service. The OOH DN service aims to assist in the management of patients to prevent avoidable hospital admission, act as a first responder and support timely hospital discharge. The service will make scheduled and unscheduled visits to cover: • Proactive management of patients with long term conditions over a 24-hour period • Management of palliative care patients at home, in conjunction with the Community Martlets Team. • Provision of intravenous therapy at home (where staff have been appropriately trained, competencies assured and equipment in place). • Acting as first responder to GP calls overnight (where appropriate and staff competencies assured). • Responding to calls from 111 or the professional support line (PSL) for admission avoidance or to support timely discharge. This Request For Information (RFI) process is designed to help the Commissioner to form a view of the best way to commission the service and is not the beginning of a Tender exercise.
