About Support Net
Support services for people with disabilities (of all ages) in
the Bay of Plenty District Health Board area are accessed through
Support Net. Support services for people aged under 65 with a
disability in the Lakes DHB area are also accessed through Support
Net.
Support Net is a Needs Assessment and Service Coordination
Service (NASC) for people with disabilities or older people
with health and disability related needs. We aim to support
those people who are eligible to receive
services to live as independently as possible in their
home and community.
NASC is the first step for a person to get Government-funded
support services. Services may include help with personal support,
meals, household management, carer support, day programmes, and the
support provided by rest homes and private hospitals.
Support Net has three main roles:
- Facilitate Needs Assessment
- Service planning and coordination
- Resource allocation within a defined budget
Support Net provides NASC services for two funding
organisations:
1. The Ministry of Health for people with long
term impairment / disability needs who meet the Ministry of Health
eligibility criteria and are aged under 65 years. We provide these
services in the Bay of Plenty and Lakes District Health Board's
areas.
2. The Bay of Plenty District Health Board for
people (of all ages) with long term chronic health needs or who are
aged over the age of 65 years and have long term disability or age
related health needs. We provide these services in the Bay of
Plenty District Health Board area.
