Services which are funded for older people and disabled people (people with all kinds of disabilities) and people with a mental illness are managed through Needs Assessment and Service Coordination Services (NASCs). NASCs will assess your needs and advise you which government funded services you are eligible for. They will also refer you to one or more organsations who can provide those services for you. You can request to be referred to Access Community Health. NASCs are set up in each region of the country.
You can find your local NASC here.
If you have been injured, ACC (Accident Compensation Corporation) funds services.
Ask your GP or nurse to refer you to your local NASC and ACC.
Or you can call one of our friendly team who can talk you through the process.
