West Sussex County Council (WSCC) commissions the provision of care and support at seventeen Extra Care schemes in West Sussex. Extra Care schemes combine accommodation with care and support services. Schemes are varied in their offer with many providing onsite communal facilities such as a restaurant, health and beauty rooms, gardens and activity rooms. All have an onsite care team which provide both planned calls and a 24/7 emergency response.
It is intended that arrangements are put in place to extend the existing care and support service contracts to ensure that they are coterminous. A full procurement process to reprocure these services will then follow at the end of the extended term.
