The Housing Providers of the Sites may fund the delivery of unplanned care and support at the Extra Care Sites with the supplier. This decision has not yet been taken by the Housing Providers at the point the tender is commenced. This service is not in the scope of this Agreement, but there is an expectation that if requested the supplier would enter into a separate agreement for any such service with the Housing Provider.

Self-funded care packages are not within the scope of this Agreement, but there is an expectation that if requested the supplier would enter into a separate agreement for any such service with Residents. The supplier must ensure that they develop and maintain a positive and constructive working relationship with the Housing Providers during the term of this Agreement.
