No charge is made to service users for the provision of this service, provided they meet the agreed criteria and their needs have been assessed by a recognised prescriber. The key outcomes of this contract are: — that prescribers are supported to order equipment which meets the assessed needs of their client in a timely manner and with easy to use responsive systems, — that service users receive equipment which is clean, functional and fit for purpose in the specified timeframe, — that the commissioners achieve value for money through efficient provision of good value, quality equipment with high rates of recycling and timely collection of equipment no longer required by service users, — that the provision of equipment supports the local health and social care system in maintaining people independently at home, avoiding hospital admission and facilitating timely discharge of people who have been admitted to hospital. Possible future developments: Deaf equipment – Bristol City Council currently have a separate contract for the provision of deaf equipment and reablement services. At some point in the future the commissioners may wish the third-party deaf equipment and reablement service provider to source equipment through the ICES provider, effectively acting as a peripheral store. In the event that this arrangement is developed, the third-party provider will be charged the tendered rates by the ICES provider. Other potential future service development areas: Assistive Technology (stand alone and/or telecare) aka Technology Enabled Care (TEC).
