Abstract	This study aimed to describe the health profile, risk factors and health service needs of clients in the management of their non-communicable diseases. This descriptive-correlational study was conducted in BTL community where respondents included 100 patients who have NCDs with more than half of them reported to have gout and rheumatoid arthritis. Data were collected using survey questionnaires and were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Pearson correlation coefficient (r). Majority of the respondents were female, with ages ranging from 48-59 years old whose occupation was mainly housekeeping and mostly reached some high school with below 5,000 as a monthly income. Drinking alcohol and high blood pressure have the highest number in terms of modifiable behavior and metabolic risk factors respectively. The highest among the health service needs as described by clients was home visit which includes procedure at home, community and health care providers support, environmental assessment, and environmental modification. However, all the health service needs namely NCD care, primary medical care, community activity, emergency care, home visit and communication were found to be essential as perceived by the clients. Hence, results suggested that community health practitioners primarily the nurses should develop programs and extend services to address the health needs of clients with non-communicable diseases in the community
