Decision Maker: Executive Member for Adult Services and Public Health
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
The purpose of this report is to seek approval
from the Executive Member to extend the existing contracts for the
Rapid Discharge Service (RDS) and Discharge to Assess Live in Care
(LIC) contracts from the period of 1 October 2021 – 31 March
2022. These services support individuals who are Hampshire
residents to return home from hospital or avoid admission to
hospital.
The County Council is seeking approval to extend the above
contracts for RDS and LIC services to meet existing and predicted
high service levels, catering for an anticipated increase in demand
over the forthcoming winter period which may be detrimentally
affected further by a third wave of Covid 19.
