Description

The Domiciliary Care Rapid Discharge Service (RDS), is a short-term reablement and domiciliary service offering timely discharge of individuals who may have an eligible Care Act need. These individuals may need support with discharge from a Hospital setting to their own home or may require support to prevent the need for a hospital admission, thereby supporting flow and effective management within the wider system. The service may be used whilst a long-term package of care is being sourced via brokerage, to bridge a package of care until the existing provider has capacity to restart the package following a hospital admission, to provide an assessment period to enable a full Care Act assessment or to prevent a hospital admission. All individuals discharged into this service will be followed up by a member of Hampshire County Council's Reablement or Social care team. Individuals discharged into this service may be Covid-19 positive and there is an expectation that the service provider will accept these individuals into this service. The Service Provider is expected to manage this need appropriately and in line with NHSE guidelines. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/coronavirus-covid-19-providing-homeca...
