TPPH4120 Alliance Agreement for Support Services for Drug & Alcohol Treatment, Domestic Abuse and the Homeless Hostel

Description

Over the last two years Torbay Council commissioners have been working with stakeholders, providers and those with lived experience to develop proposals to commission a range of services using an alliance commissioning approach, as part of a wider programme of projects aimed at improving outcomes for people with multiple and/or complex needs. The Torbay Council commissioned services that are included in the Alliance Agreement are: • Drug & Alcohol Treatment Services • Homeless Hostel • Services for those who are or have been subject to domestic violence or abuse. Lot 2: Drug and Alcohol Treatment Services The aim is to create a service that increases access to treatment and reduces the harm that problematic substance misuse causes to our communities, as well as helping people overcome dependence. This Service will support individuals to achieve personalised sustainable substance use goals, whilst also improving their health and wellbeing. This may be achieved through: • Full recovery; • Harm reduction; and • End of life care planning to ensure dignity and appropriate care. Lot 3: Domestic and Sexual Violence and Abuse Support Service The Service will deliver trauma informed support and safe accommodation to people who have experienced or are experiencing domestic violence and abuse, and their children. In addition the Service will support people who disclose sexual violence and abuse to access specialist services as appropriate and will maintain contact with them until such time as they are engaged with the relevant specialist service.
