Description

Prior Information Notice, for the purpose of inviting interested providers participate in Market Engagement event(s). The Council has a statutory duty to provide services to those requiring care. In respect of Disabled Children and Young People (DCYP) this is under the Children Act 1989, section 17. The intended services will provide support to disabled children, young people (up the age of 18 years) and their families in a variety of ways, including but not limited to: • Achieving outcomes agreed upon in the Child Support Plan or Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) • Supporting personal care and hygiene • Assisting family members with tasks related to the child or young person • Promotion of well being and safeguarding • Promoting independence • Breaks from caring, for parents/carers The intended framework will need to respond to the current needs and demands in relation to disabled children and young people’s domiciliary care needs in Kent. The current framework is not fit for purpose and we are keen to explore the reasons for this with providers who are working across the county, with the aim of developing a new model that works for both the Local Authority and any providers who may wish to be part of it. Kent County Council intend on holding a series of workshops to explore the various options available and to give providers an opportunity to help to shape the new service. It is anticipated that the first workshop will be held (on MS Teams) on or about Monday 23rd September from 11am-12pm.
