Description

Pharmacy Needle Exchange Service - Accredited Providers

Nottingham City Council is seeking to establish an open Accreditation of organisations able to deliver a Pharmacy Needle Exchange Service. Providers will form part of the wider substance misuse treatment system in Nottingham City and Nottinghamshire County.

The primary intention of this Service is to provide clean injecting equipment and paraphernalia to PWID in a safe and informed way, to encourage Service Users to return used equipment and to accept used equipment ready for disposal.

Providers will have the option to apply for one of two schemes, as follows:

Level 1 - the Provider will deliver all essential elements of the service above by providing a range of injecting equipment in pre-approved packs (see section 6). The Provider of this model will be required to have storage facilities for large boxes and space for a small number of each pack within the designated needle exchange area.

Level 2 - the Provider will deliver all essential elements of the service above in providing a range of pre-approved injecting equipment and related paraphernalia in a 'pick and mix' format. "pick and mix" is the model to describe the dispensing of individual items of injecting equipment, instead of pre-packaged equipment.

Duration: 1st October 2019 - 30th September 2024, with the possibility of further extensions of 1 year plus a further 1 year.

The contract value of £65,000 p.a covers the entire provision required across the City of Nottingham Applicants must be registered with www.eastmidstenders.org. Accreditation Application Documents can be downloaded from . www.eastmidstenders.org.
