The aim is to facilitate the transition to functional independence where possible so that each patient can return to their usual place of residence within a pre-defined period of time as detailed in their care and support plan\. Additional information: This service will provide a sub-acute bed based intermediate care within the Greater Preston, Chorley and South Ribble areas, for patients requiring nursing care and a range of short term treatment, complex discharge planning and rehabilitative care\. This is both step up provision to prevent unnecessary acute hospital admissions and premature admissions to long term care and step down provision for patients from acute hospital settings for recuperation and rehabilitation to support timely discharge from hospital\. The Commissioner wishes to contract for a quantity of 5 block beds at each of the three sites with an option to flex this number as required from time to time\.
