Description

NASC (Need Assessment Service Coordination) Hawke's Bay is an assessment and service coordination agency that assists people with a disability, and their family/whānau, to maintain independence in their home and community, or a residential setting.

A needs assessment helps to determine a person's abilities, resources, goals and needs, in order of priority.

During service coordination we look at a range of options to meet your identified needs and goals. This may include a mix of privately and publicly funded services, as well as help from family and friends.
