Discharge to Assess - S & E Housing Limited
Overview
Summary, notice description and lot information
The public procurement process for "Discharge to Assess - S & E Housing Limited" has been completed by the North East London NHS Foundation Trust, with the contract awarded to S and E Housing Limited. This procurement relates to services in the hospital sector, specifically those classified under Hospital Services (CPV 85111000). The initiative aims to enhance patient recovery by discharging medically ready patients from hospitals to temporary care settings where their long-term needs can be assessed, thus streamlining hospital resource use.
The contract was signed on 1st July 2025, for a value of £1,200,000, with operations based in Essex, UK and the surrounding region. The procurement method used was limited, an award procedure without prior publication due to technical reasons where the service could only be provided by a specific supplier. This falls under a procurement process without a call for competition and is covered by the GPA.
This tender opens opportunities for businesses in the healthcare management and residential care sectors to innovate and expand their services, particularly those offering specialised patient care and rehabilitation facilities. Companies operating as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) could find this sector highly lucrative due to the demand for efficient patient discharge solutions and the potential to collaborate with NHS Trusts. The successful implementation of this contract underscores the importance of adaptability and specialised offerings in the evolving healthcare landscape, making it a prime area for businesses focused on patient-centric solutions and optimisation of healthcare resources.
Patients who are medically ready to leave the hospital can be discharged promptly, with their longer-term care and support needs assessed outside the hospital environment, typically in a temporary care setting. This approach helps streamline the discharge process, minimise unnecessary hospital stays, and optimise the use of hospital resources.
The Care Act 2014 and NHS guidance emphasise that social care assessments should not delay discharge. D2A fulfils these obligations.
The Benefits for patients are:
1.
Enhances patient recovery in a more conducive environment.
2. Allows assessments to focus on real-world needs rather than hospital conditions.
3. Improves overall efficiency and cost-effectiveness of care delivery.
