Wheelchair services
Dear NHS Norfolk and Waveney Integrated Care Board,
I wish to make the following request for information under the Freedom of Information Act.
This request concerns the NHS provision of the wheelchair service(s) for your area. I would be most grateful if you can respond with the following information. Where you have multiple wheelchair services, I would be grateful if you could answer for each.
1. Does the service which provides wheelchairs also provide other areas of care, e.g. rehabilitation, musculoskeletal, etc.?
2. When did the current contract with the service provider start?
3. When will the current contract with the service provider end?
4. When will the service(s) or contract(s) be re-tendered?
5. When the service is re-tendered will it be combined with any other services?
6. Which team within the ICB is responsible for the wheelchair service(s)? E.g. is there a team which manages a portfolio of conditions, and if so what are they?
7. Please can you provide contact details (e.g. name, email address and telephone number) of the team or person responsible for commissioning the NHS Wheelchair Service(s) for the ICB?
Thank you very much.
Yours faithfully,
Stellan Sigg
