NHS England and NHS Improvement (NHSE/I) South West - Mental Health Treatment Requirements (MHTRs) in Dorset and Devon & Torbay

Description

NHS England and NHS Improvement South West (the Commissioner) sought to commission Mental Health Treatment Requirements (MHTRs) Services in Dorset, Devon and Torbay. MHTRs form part of the wider Community Sentence Treatment Requirements (CSTRs) Programme which is a partnership between the Ministry of Justice (MoJ), Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC), NHS England and NHS Improvement (NHSE/I), Public Health England (PHE) and Her Majesty's Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS). The CSTR Programme aims to develop pathways to enable and facilitate the increased use of all three treatment requirements: - Mental Health Treatment Requirements (MHTRs) - Drug Rehabilitation Requirements (DRRs) - Alcohol Treatment Requirements (ATRs) ATRs and DRRs in Dorset, Devon and Torbay were outside the scope of this procurement, beyond the co-ordination of CSTRs for combined orders. However, there is an expectation that MHTR and ATR & DRR providers will work closely together in the best interests of the service user, especially where it can be identified that a combined order is the best outcome. This procurement was divided into the following 2 lots; providers could bid for 1 or both lots. 1. Dorset 2. Devon and Torbay Contracts would be for an initial term of 2 years and 6 months, with a possible extension of a further one year. This procurement was being carried out by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioners.
