The brief

The aim of this study is to determine the reasonable costs of providing the nursing element of care in a registered nursing home for FNC eligible residents.

The reasonable costs should allow care homes to provide sufficient numbers of suitably qualified, competent, skilled and experienced persons to provide FNC.

It is envisaged by the Authority that this study will consider: The amount of nursing time required to meet FNC eligible residents' nursing needs.

The total cost of providing the nursing element of care to FNC eligible residents.

Identify a single national weekly per-person rate that would cover the average costs of providing nursing care to FNC eligible residents.

Calculate any variation in costs (by considering for example the level of care needed, regional cost differences and the size and specialism of the nursing home).

The location of the Services will be carried out at the Contractor's registered office, and other relevant locations as necessary (to be agreed during the course of the contract).
