The Personal Assistance Services (PAS) Program provides community-based, in home services to enable adult persons with severe physical disabilities to remain in their own homes and avoid placement in a long-term care facility. The provision of home and community-based services is  based upon the identified needs of the recipient and available funding.  ADSD assists recipients with accessing other available services, as needed.

PAS policies follow a course of procedures to assure that the requirements of NRS 427A.791 and regulations in NAC 427A.675 – 427A.770 are achieved.

    Who is Eligible?

    Individuals throughout Nevada, age 18 or older, in need of supportive services to live independently, who have been diagnosed with a physical disability that substantially limits their ability to complete activities of daily living.
