Caregiver Support Network Community Outreach Team (CREST-CSN) Club HEAL

The Caregiver Support Network Community Outreach Team (CREST-CSN) focuses on caregivers who are caring for persons with mental health issues and/ or dementia, who have or are at risk of developing depression, anxiety and burnout themselves due to their caregiving role.   

The team increases public awareness of caregiving concerns and promotes early identification of caregiver needs.  

CREST-CSN provides psychosocial intervention such as counselling and coping techniques, as well as supports the caregivers’ mental wellbeing through organising health and wellness activities, e.g., stress management and self-care. Caregivers are linked up to support services in the community where needed. 

CREST-CSN is one of the programmes under the Community Mental Health Masterplan developed by the Agency for Integrated Care (AIC), together with the Ministry of Health (MOH), which enables persons living with mental health issues and dementia to seek early treatment nearer to their homes and ensure that they are well-supported in the community.
