Neurodiverse environmental audit for secure mental health wards.
Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust seeks to commission a structured neurodiversity-informed environmental audit of low- and medium-secure forensic mental health services across its sites in Thames Valley and Wessex. The audit will identify gaps and priorities for improvement in ward environments, focusing on sensory sensitivities and reasonable adjustments for neurodivergent individuals, including those with autism and learning disabilities. The goal is to enhance service user experience, reduce distress, and improve outcomes. The contract is below threshold and open competition.
