Capital Support (Disability) | Capital, Coast and Hutt Valley | Te Whatu Ora

Description

Capital Support is contracted by the Ministry of Health to work with disabled people under the age of 65 and their family, whānau, aiga, or carers, living in the CCDHB area.

The team:

  • identify strengths and support needs
  • outline what disability support services are available
  • determine their eligibility for Ministry-funded support services.

 Capital Support allocates Ministry-funded disability support services and help with accessing other supports. These services are then delivered by their respective service providers.

Referral Expectations

You can refer yourself, or any other person or organisation can make a referral for you, as long as they have your agreement. 

Once Capital Support has your referral, we review your eligibility for Ministry of Health-funded disability support services.  If accepted, we will prioritise the referral by urgency, and contact you to arrange an appointment to complete an assessment.
