Under the provisions of the Food Safety Act 1990 and associated European Legislation Isle of Wight Council has a duty of enforcement as a Food Authority, in particular enforcement of the food hygiene and standards legislation. The service is currently provided by the Business Regulation team, part of the Environmental Health function of Community Protection. This duty requires that interventions are carried out at food premises on the Isle of Wight to check compliance with legal provisions and food safety and standards. This contract will be to complete food hygiene inspections with a broadly complaint C, D risk profile and newly registered premises with a potential hazard of no more than 35. This includes carrying out the inspections in the identified time frame, completion of paperwork and letters. In addition, it will also include undertaking a food standards inspection at those premises that are due. However please note, should the need arise it is the expectation that the provider would have the capability to undertake food hygiene inspections at any risk profile.

The service aims to provide high-quality support for carers that is accessible, equitable, and responsive to the needs of our local Isle of Wight population. The service will be delivered to carers resident on the Isle of Wight, ensuring timely access to information, advice, and guidance during a cared-for person's acute hospital admission-whether for physical or mental health needs. Its purpose is to improve outcomes, experiences, and long-term resilience, helping individuals remain in their chosen place of residence for longer, reducing reliance on statutory services, and delaying or preventing permanent admission to residential care. The provider will offer care that is standardised, transparent, and coordinated, enabling carers to feel supported throughout the acute stay of their cared for individual, receive optimal interventions and support the first time, and experience improved independence and ability to remain in or return to their caring responsibilities. A collaborative approach involving all stakeholders in the health and social care pathway will be essential to ensure equitable outcomes and a positive experience for both carers and cared for individuals. This is a 3 plus 2 year contract.

Hampshire, Southampton and Isle of Wight CCG Invitation to Tender (ITT) for Integrated ENT and Audiology Service for a 24 month contract. The Hampshire, Southampton and isle of Wight CCG, Southampton locality. currently has an integrated Community ENT and Audiology service model, which was commissioned by the previous Southampton City Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG). In April 2021, the Southampton City CCG merged with five other local CCGs to become part of a single Hampshire, Southampton and Isle of Wight CCG (HSIOW CCG). In July 2022, the HSIOW CCG will in turn be dissolved with its functions transferring into a new HSIOW Integrated Care System (ICS). This tender is for a short term 24-month Contract whilst full-service review is undertaken across the ICS. The Service will; • Provide a combined ENT and Audiology service for patients aged 18 years and over and who are registered with a Southampton GP Practice. • The service will manage demand from patients with ENT disorders and supports early intervention for patients with hearing loss, ensuring patients are managed at the earliest possible opportunity and most effectively. • The service will also provide face to face clinical assessment, diagnostic tests, clinical interventions, aural care and the provision and maintenance of hearing aids. • Relieve pressure on acute ENT & Audiology services at University Hospitals Southampton NHS Foundation Trust, ensuring only those requiring secondary care interventions are referred on. • Continually improve quality and patient experience with reduced waiting times.

Hampshire, Southampton and Isle of Wight CCG Invitation to Tender (ITT) for Community Dermatology Services for a 24 month contract with optional 12 month extension period. Please note the total potential contract value is for the maximum full 3 year period across all three Lot's. Skin conditions are extremely common, and more than half the population are affected annually. It is estimated that each year approximately 24% of the population see their GPs for skin disease, and there were 3 million outpatient appointments for patients with dermatological conditions in the UK in 2019-20. Although the most common skin disorders are not life threatening, if not treated appropriately patients can suffer harm and longer-term health problems. The psychological impact on everyday life, work, social interaction, and healthy living can be substantial. Many of the rare and some of the severe common skin conditions have an associated morbidity and mortality thus early and accurate diagnosis is critical to appropriate management. Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the UK and dermatology services receive more urgent referrals for suspected cancer than any other speciality. The unmet demand from new suspected cancers can mean that review appointments for patients with other painful and debilitating conditions are delayed. Changes in health service provision and the need to commission high-quality cost-effective services, has in part driven the move to deliver certain services and specialties more appropriately in the community setting. There is a recognition of the importance of patients receiving care closer to home, shifting from a traditional model of hospital-based care towards a community-based approach where appropriate; this in turn supports delivery of NHS constitutional waiting times for consultant-led services by freeing-up capacity and reducing waiting times. Hampshire, Southampton and Isle of Wight CCG published three Prior Information Notices (PINs) in February 2022 regarding re-procurement of existing Community Dermatology Services. These PINs requested that the market submit expressions of interest for the provision of Community Dermatology Services in three separate Local Delivery Systems. Due to receiving multiple expressions of interest across all three Local Delivery Systems, the CCG have decided to run one competitive procurement split into three lots. This will enable the compliance and regulatory checks as part of the tender process to be completed once per provider. Under this procurement approach, providers still have the same opportunity to bid for one or multiple areas. To access the full ITT document set, specification and Contract please register on In-tend project reference number F5491 Community Dermatology Services. Please note the deadline for tender submissions is 12:00 noon 6th June 2022.
