This report seeks approval to co-produce with
the CCG a Dementia Strategy for Oldham. Through the work of the
Dementia Strategy we will be able to understand the needs of our
borough in relation to dementia and we can use this scope to
determine future commissioning intent.
In order to achieve this, approval is sought to exempt the current
contracted services in relation to dementia from the contract
procedure rules.

Consultation process
The Planning and Commissioning Team at the
Council have discussed current commissioning activity in relation
to dementia services with the CCG. Both organisations agree that it
would be beneficial to co-produce a Dementia Strategy for Oldham
which identifies the needs of the borough and any potential gaps.
This in turn will inform future commissioning intentions ensuring
the needs of the borough are addressed
