Description

Carmarthenshire County Council, in collaboration with regional partners Pembrokeshire County Council and Ceredigion County Council, is developing a regional Framework for Working Age Adult Care Home services across West Wales. The proposed Framework will be structured into three service Lots, reflecting the primary client groups: Lot 1: Learning Disabilities, including Autism Lot 2: Mental Health Lot 3: Physical Disabilities Providers may apply for one or more Lots, depending on their area of expertise and service provision. The Lots are intended to support a more structured and consistent approach to commissioning across the region, ensuring that services can meet a range of needs for working age adults. The proposed Framework will be open to: Providers with existing care home provision within the region; and/or Providers who intend to establish a care home service within the region within the next 12 months Providers joining the Framework will be required to demonstrate a commitment to supporting citizens from across the West Wales region and prioritising regional placements.
