Overview
The aim of the Services / Contract is to deliver appropriate support to adults residing in West Lothian who have mild to moderate mental health problems, as well as those in acute psychological distress (the DBI part of the service). Individuals will be supported to identify personal outcomes and priorities and will be provided with specialist advice on a range of issues; this may involve signposting to other social or clinical services.
By continuing to provide such a service in West Lothian, it is anticipated that there will be a reduction in the number of contacts that an individual has with their GP, or that the service will act as an alternative to the individual seeking support from their GP. The Service will continue to be delivered from the Community Wellbeing Hubs (located in Bathgate and Livingston), and other venues as appropriate .
Additional information: Full breakdown of technical criteria weighting can be found within the technical envelope. The quality criteria will be scored out of 100 and tenderers will receive a pro-rated score out of 90.
