Changes are planned for a learning disability community home in Ramsey.
The running of Ingledene on Lezayre Road, currently in the hands of the Department of Social Care, is set to be put out to tender.
The move comes as the contract to run another home nearby is set to expire.
The new contract will seek an organisation to run both from April next year.
