NHS Derby and Derbyshire CCG Integrated Community Equipment Service (DICES) and All Age Consumables Service

NHS Derby and Derbyshire Clinical Commissioning Group wish to appoint suitably qualified providers to manage the Derby Integrated Community Equipment Service and the All Age Consumables service. The Derby Integrated Community Equipment Service provides a range of equipment on loan to people of all ages ordinarily resident in the city of Derby, following assessment and prescription by a recognized prescriber. The All Age Consumables service is to manage the logistical arrangements for providing medical equipment and consumables for patients living in the community. Supporting patients of all ages to be independent and looked after in their communities, rather than in residential or acute medical settings is a key priority for Joined Up Care Derbyshire, the STP for the Derby and Derbyshire footprint.
