The Council, in partnership with Coventry City Council, Coventry and Warwickshire Integrated Care Board (ICB), Coventry and Warwickshire Partnership Trust and NHS England local specialist team, are working to deliver the Transforming Care programme (TCP) within the subregion. The aim of the Programme is to prevent avoidable admissions to specialist Learning Disability (LD) or Mental Health hospitals by autistic people or people with LD and ensure that individuals are discharged back into the community with the appropriate accommodation, help and support.
The Learning Disabilities and Autism (LDA) programme has NHS Long Term Plan targets to reduce the number of people with a learning disability and/or autism who are in a specialist LD or mental health hospital setting. Partners are keen to explore innovative care and support solutions including development of bespoke accommodation-based support services for those whose complex needs cannot be met through existing standard provision, which this scheme aims to support.
This project is being delivered on behalf of Warwickshire County Council (the Council) and Coventry and Warwickshire Integrated Care Board (ICB) and the Council will act as the lead Commissioner for this project.
Full details are included in the tender documents.
