Description

The short-term community beds will provide a rehabilitation, recovery, and assessment service for the adult population of Leeds who are unable to be supported at home. The service will provide some ‘step up’ from community settings, as well as services for people on discharge. The service will support people to reach the immediate rehabilitation goals that need 24-hour care before being transferred to either continue their recovery in their own home with further services or leaving the short-term bed to a long-term care setting. The beds will also offer admission on an ad hoc basis (not expected to be more than 2 at any one time and on an infrequent basis) to people supported by the Community Neurorehabilitation Service if they need an intervention that cannot be provided in their usual place of residence.<br/><br/>The specification sets out the detailed requirements for future Short-term Community Beds in the way we currently anticipate them to be provided from July 2026 and onwards.…
