We are concerned with the long-term support needs of elderly people who have a disability, and the needs of their carers. We aim to assist older people to live at home, safely and independently, for as long as possible.
A Needs Assessment is the first step towards getting the support or services you and your family require if you have a long-term disability. A needs assessment determines your strengths, needs and goals and identifies the services required to support you to be as independent as possible.

We provide NASC services for adults under 65 years who have very high support needs as a result of chronic disease. These people must also meet the eligibility criteria for the Long Term Services Chronic Health Conditions Service [LTS –CHC]. This service was previously known as the Interim Funding Pool [IFP].
We provide NASC services for people 65 years old and over living in the Central Auckland area as a part of Home and Older People's Health.
NASC services for people under 65 years old living in the Central Auckland area are provided by Kaikaranga. If you are under 65, you cannot be referred to our care. Please visit the Kaikaranga website: https://kaikaranga.org.nz/ for more information about their service.
