Nua Healthcare have just launched a brand new day service for
individuals with Asperger Syndrome and Autism in Portarlington. This
2000 sq foot facility provides courses such as social skills, drama,
computers, crafts and culinary training. The unit was purpose built to
cater for a small client group with 6 separate areas for separate
activities. Individuals receive a high level of staff intervention and
programmes designed specifically to their needs.
The unit has just opened but we hope to eventually provide FETAC
courses up to level 5. Individuals with Asperger Syndrome / High
functioning Autism will be able to avail of educational activities
that can provide them with the equivalent of a leaving certificate
qualification. This facility also caters for individuals with learning
disabilities and challenging behaviour on alternate days.

About Nua
Nua Healthcare was formed in 2004 by a group of experienced social
care professionals to fill a significant gap in services for people
with Asperger Syndrome / High functioning Autism. Prior the
organisations inception, many individuals were faced with being
inappropriately placed in learning disability or psychiatric services.
This was of great concern / stress to individuals and families
affected by the condition.
Our first residential facility was opened in November 2004 Winterdown
Farm. Since then our service has expanded significantly. We now have
many residential units in operation as well as three state of the art
day services. Our residential settings range from adolescent, low
support, high support, secure and a new purpose developed independent
living complex.
Our staff and management have extensive experience working in the area
of developmental disability, community services and crisis
intervention. All staff are highly motivated, fully trained and
committed to quality, social inclusion and service user empowerment.
We have had great success in designing and implementing person centred
programmes for a varied client group which has led to a significant
increase in quality of life for these individuals and their families.
