Summary
This study aims to identify and support hidden caregivers of older adults in Tai Po. Caregivers who are not currently using respite services will receive a combination of in-home respite, social worker follow-up, crisis management, and volunteer phone check-ins based on their needs. The goal is to see if these services improve caregivers' mental well-being, social connectedness, and quality of life.
