Reasons for decision

 

Cabinet agreed to contracts for the delivery of short-term bed based services to enable residents to return home more quickly after a hospital stay or avoid going into hospital unnecessarily, which would in turn release hospital beds for other people who are acutely unwell. Cabinet noted the partnership approach to this service and how it was fully funded by the NHS.

 

Alternative options considered and rejected

 

To not accept the tenders, but Cabinet noted this would lead to increased length of stay in hospital for residents.

Classification

Private - Whilst the Cabinet's decisions above are always made public, the officer report relating to this matter is not because it was considered in the private part of the meeting and contained information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the Authority holding that information) and the public interest in withholding the information outweighed the public interest in disclosing it in accordance with Section 100(A) and paragraph 3 of Part 1 of Schedule 12 (A) to the Local Government Act 1972 (as amended).
