## About this tender

### Children's Festival Medical Provision

Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council will be holding its Children's Festival event on Saturday 1 and Sunday 2 June 2024. We are looking for a medical provider to supply the appropriate medical cover for this event.

Sandwell Children's Festival is a family friendly event that will see attendance of around 2000 people per day (1500 expected peak), and will be packed with family workshops and activities, live music, and entertainment.

The event will run from 1100 to 1800 each day at Sandwell Valley Country Park, Salters Lane, West Bromwich, B71 4BG.

Cover is required for the following\*:

DATE ROLE NUMBER REQUIRED EXPECTED HOURS

1/6/24 FREC3 4 1030-1830

2/6/24 FREC3 4 1030-18/30

\*Required staffing levels have been calculated using the Purple Guide classification of a Tier 2 event based on numbers and activities. Quotations should be based on the above, however actual cover may be subject to change following discussions and the production of an event medical plan.

Sandwell Council Events Team take advice from The Purple Guide to Health, Safety and Welfare Music and Other Events. It is important to ensure that the right skills, experience and resources needed to provide safe and effective cover are available.

The provider must hold appropriate Medical Defence and Public Liability Insurances and have rigorous clinical governance procedures in place. The provider must be registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC).

It is the responsibility of the medical provider to propose a medical plan for the event; whilst remaining commercially viable, this should set out a safe, effective and resilient service which will reduce the impact of the event on the local NHS as much as possible.

Details of the cover to be provided should be given in writing and contained in the formal medical plan. The medical plan should include details of any information-sharing protocol agreed between the named medical manager, the NHS and the event safety manager and any MOU between the medical provider and the local NHS Ambulance Service Trust. Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council must obtain information of medical issues and information on the event site.

Ambulances used on site should ideally be four-wheel drive capable especially where the event site is a green field site.

As per The Purple Guide guidance, a variety of roles may be required at an event including the following.

### Doctor

A person currently registered as a doctor with the General Medical Council

o Pre-hospital experience and acute care qualifications are desirable

o Retired or honorary unregistered clinicians are ineligible

### Paramedic/Specialist Practitioner

A person currently registered as a paramedic with the Health Care and Professionals Council

o A pre-hospital specialist who will be accustomed to providing unscheduled care in difficult environments
