Older Peoples NASC Services

You are here: Home » Services » Older Peoples NASC Services

Need Assessment Services Co-ordination (NASC) agencies work with older people to help identify their needs and to outline what support services are available. They allocate District Health Board-funded support services and assist with accessing other supports.

Definition

The Ministry of Health definition of an eligible older person is:

Someone who has been identified as having an age-related disability which is likely to continue for a minimum of six months and result in a reduction of independent function to the extent that ongoing support is required.

There are Older People NASC services for each District Health Board in New Zealand

See the map to find your local NASC service.
