Decision details

This report makes recommendations regarding the transfer of three extra care service contracts.

Further to the decision at the previous meeting on 16 January 2018 (Minute No 23 refers), Councillor Sandra Samuels OBE presented the report that clarified the cost implications of novating three extra care service contracts from the Extracare Charitable Trust (Extracare) to Midland Heart.  The proposal to novate the contracts would enable the tenants of Broadway Gardens, Bushfield Court and James Beattie House to continue to receive extra care services that meet their needs and to experience a seamless transfer to the new service provider.

Resolved:

That the rate paid for additional care hours and to fund waking nights staffing at Broadway Gardens, Bushfield Court and James Beattie House at be agreed an additional cost of £87,000, taking the revised annual contract value to around £980,000.
