Purchase of domiciliary care by non statutory providers

The Northern Trust currently provides domiciliary care services to over 5,000 service users in their own homes. Domiciliary care is the term used to describe a range of social care services put in place to support a service user in their own home. These services are currently delivered by both statutory and non-statutory providers. Non- statutory service providers include a range of independent providers such as private companies and voluntary organisations.

We are now consulting on our proposed new arrangements for purchasing domiciliary care services from non-statutory providers with a tender process commencing April / May 2018.
