Description

Edinburgh Health and Social Care Partnership (EHSCP) are looking to put a contract in place for a person-centred Critical House Cleans service. The City of Edinburgh Council are aiming for this service to enable vulnerable people to remain in or return (from hospital) to their home and to an environment that is fit to occupy. This contract will facilitate the deep cleaning, decluttering, and removal of waste from identified room(s) within a house/domestic property, making it safe, sanitary and habitable for the adult tenant/house owner. This is not an empty house clearance service. This contract will ensure the Council has a dedicated provider that can carry out the required work for the demand throughout the lifetime of the contract and provide a service which covers the whole of the city area. The service outcomes will contribute to a positive improvement in the health and wellbeing for people who use the service, enabling them to return to a clean and safe environment and remain in their homes. Positive improvements will be achieved in the living environment for people who use the service and a resulting improvement in motivation, where appropriate, to maintain their own home. The Service outcomes shall promote the individuality, dignity, privacy, choice, safety, confidence and independence of people who use the service. This requirement supports the Council’s Wellbeing, Commitment 8. People can access the support they need in the place they live and work and Commitment 9. Improved safety and wellbeing for vulnerable citizens.

Total Quantity or Scope

The service will deliver and clearance and clean service which shall enable vulnerable people to remain in or return (from hospital/acute site) to their home and to an environment that is fit to occupy i.e. hygienic, functional and safe. The commissioned house clean shall be professional, non-judgemental and carried out with a 'person-centred' approach, ensuring the home and property is restored to a sanitary and liveable condition. These services will be developed with the needs and outcomes of Edinburgh Citizen’s being a priority. Throughout the life of the contract, if evidence suggests there is a need to do so, the Council may modify the contract as required due to change in client groups, change in funding, change in delivery focus or as may be required to respond to necessary changes such as the introduction of a National Care Service . Development over the life of the contract will be in line with the Ethical Commissioning Principles and with consultation of the contracted providers and service users. It is expected there will be up to 165 critical cleans required to be undertaken per annum. These cleans will be apportioned monthly with an average of 13 critical cleans required to be undertaken per month. This monthly average volume may vary depending on specific requirements.
