Description of the contract
This ITT seeks to identify an organisation with the capacity to support the Local Authority and Health Board partners in producing a strategy for improved working with the Children and Adolescent Mental Health (CAMHS) service in North Wales to achieve improved therapeutic outcomes for children and young people.
The strategy developed will support Local Authority, Health Board and CAMHS partners in North Wales to develop a response to the recommendations of the Children’s Commissioner for Wales in her report ‘No Wrong Door' that: “Regional Partnership Boards should plan and implement a ‘No Wrong Door’ approach to mental health and well-being”.
The Commissioners are seeking to commission the development of options that would form the blueprint / strategy for a ‘No Wrong Door’ approach in North Wales that:
1) builds on approaches, good practice and learning that already exists within the region;
2) identifies and provides solutions for gaps/ areas that need strengthening within the system;
3) looks at the continuum of support and therapy provision from prevention, early help through to providing safe accommodation for children and young people with especially complex needs (taking account of the recent national report on this;
4) reviews approaches and learning in other areas of the UK;
5) develops a coherent and consistent approach that meets the principals of ‘No Wrong Door’ within a regional framework that is responsive to local demand and need.
