CREST-Caregivers

The CREST-Caregivers focuses on caregivers who have or are at risk of developing depression, anxiety and burn-out due to their caregiving role. The team increases public awareness of caregiving concerns, promotes identification of caregiver needs, supports caregivers in self-care and links caregivers up with support groups and counselling services where needed. 

Club HEAL’s CREST-Caregivers was launched in April 2021 to support and connect caregivers who are taking care of people with mental health challenges and seniors with dementia. 

The Key Objectives of CREST-Caregivers are to: 

• Provide networking opportunities for caregivers
• Strengthen the relationships of caregivers to empower and help one another
• Increase public awareness of caregivers’ burnout
• Promote recognition of early signs and symptoms of mental health conditions
• Provide emotional support and access to mental health and caregiving resources
• Link caregivers to relevant agencies for further assistance
