25076 Homecare framework

Framework agreement

Description

Cambridgeshire County Council is due to recommission its Homecare Delivery service (currently a Dynamic Purchasing System - DPS) in November 2027. Provision of homecare for adults with an assessed care and support need is a statutory duty for local authorities. The service currently costs Cambridgeshire in the region of £54m each year and has a reputational impact for the local authority. The council has committed to improving the homecare offer available to local people as a key aim of its Care Together programme. Working with local people and communities, our intention is to reshape homecare to become more personalised, outcome focused, place-based and locally delivered. This ensures alignment with corporate ambitions (Strategic Ambition 4 and Our Future Council and departmental priorities (ASPIRE and Prevention Strategy). To deliver against these ambitions, the Homecare model we put in place in 2027 must:  • be more person-centred and locally delivered  • improve existing service and encourage innovation in support of local people, offering more choice, flexibility, and personalisation  • ensure that the council has access to quality and sustainable homecare provision  • explore efficiencies to help mitigate future demand growth for social care with balancing market shaping duties   • be aligned with the healthy ageing and prevention public health strategies where people are supported to remain independent.  We are inviting Homecare providers in to attend one of our upcoming online Provider Engagement Sessions.
