In spite of our older service user base, the majority of NCBI’s services are funded by the Disability Services Sector and not the Older Person’s Services Sector in the HSE. As we have outlined, the funding we receive under the Physical and Sensory Disability Services Sector does not cater sufficiently for older people. People do not cease to have a disability once they reach the age of 65, yet under the current funding and service provision model an individual can either have a disability or be an older person; not both.
