This includes both men avoiding an admission and men who may need a stay as part of a step down from an inpatient stay.
This service forms part of the BNSSG crisis pathway. The service will be delivered by the successful provider but will require close partnership with AWP crisis and community teams.

The contract term is 7 years plus an optional extension of up to 2 years.
The contract value will be 520,000 per annum. An additional 100,000k will be available in year one only for set up costs making the total value or 4.78 million over the full 9 year period.
Inflationary uplifts for the contract will be considered through BNSSG ICB planning processes and would be expected to be aligned to approaches taken with other non-statutory providers.
