Occupational Therapy Services in the London Borough of Newham

Description

Newham Council has commissioned the Occupational Therapy Services in the London Borough of Newham since November 2018. The Care Act 2014 states that Occupational Therapists (OT's) are well placed to undertake assessment or review of an individual or carer with standard or complex support needs. Occupational Therapy intervention is primarily preventative and the cost benefits associated with the provision of personalised home adaptations is well evidenced. OT's are effective at preventing, reducing or delaying the need for care and support based on a holistic picture of the individual or family, taking into consideration informal support networks and an asset-based approach which is complementary to maximising individual and community Resilience. The overall outcome for Adult Services is to promote the wellbeing of people in Newham, making the best use of available resources to enable adults to live in the community independently and safely, free from abuse and neglect. The Council has not been able to award the proposed Contract.
