Caring for our caregivers: The power of social prescriptions

Canadian caregivers are in crisis. Canadian Centre for Caregiving Excellence (CCCE) is responding with free mental health and wellness support, and with a new tool – social prescribing for caregivers.

Social prescription integrates social and medical approaches to care by prescribing non-medical interventions. This can include joining a peer support group, taking an art class, going on a hike or to see a movie and reconnect with friends; supports are customized based on the individual’s needs and interests.
