Winning Bids for Reablement Services in Domiciliary Care

Reablement services play a critical role in helping people regain independence after illness, injury, or a hospital stay. These contracts are time-limited, outcome-focused, and often subject to strict KPIs. To win a reablement tender, your bid needs to prove you can deliver results quickly and collaboratively.


⏱ Focus on Time-Critical Delivery

Commissioners expect reablement providers to act fast. Demonstrate your capacity to:

  • Mobilise services rapidly after contract award
  • Conduct timely assessments within required hours
  • Adjust care plans dynamically as progress is made

🀝 Evidence Multi-Agency Collaboration

Reablement doesn’t happen in isolation. Show how you will work alongside:

  • Hospital discharge teams
  • Occupational therapists and physiotherapists
  • Social workers and community nurses

Highlight any existing relationships and joint working protocols.


🎯 Prove Measurable Outcomes

Commissioners will want to see success rates. Include:

  • Percentage of service users achieving independence within the target timeframe
  • Reduced hospital readmissions
  • Positive feedback from clients and families

🧍 Keep It Person-Centred

Even in short-term interventions, personalised care matters. Show how you tailor reablement plans to individual goals, preferences, and home environments.
