Independence at Home Flexible Framework

Bath & North East Somerset Council are establishing an ‘Independence at Home’ (IAH) Flexible Framework. The Flexible Framework will be used for establishing independence at home packages, typically for older people(65+ years old), whose primary support need does not relate to a learning disability, developmental disorder or complex mental health issue. Services commissioned under the Flexible Framework include Homecare and Domiciliary Care, Waking Nights and Sleep-In Nights, and any other services which are intended to be added to the Framework Agreement as a later phase including but not limited to “Live-in Care”. The Flexible Framework is being established by Bath & North East Somerset Council in order to secure packages for both Council-funded and health-funded packages of care.
