CREST
How
it started
Demographics
• 13.5% of the Canterbury population
is over 65
• Estimated to rise to 20% in 2020
• Number of 85+ will double
• 85+ year olds utilise 3x health care
resources of other age groups
Pressure on aged care and hospital beds
• Prior to the earthquake plans were in place to plan and
implement a support discharge programme in Canterbury.
• The earthquake resulted in a loss of 106 medical beds and
635 ARC beds
• We needed to progress the supported discharge initiative
rapidly to reduce facility constraints
What is CREST?
• CREST is a community based rehabilitative supported discharge
and admission avoidance service for older people.
• It works with an interdisciplinary team
– a liaison team (covering both hospital and primary care)
– a case manager (physiotherapist, OT, RN) that establish
rehabilitation plans
– a coordinator (community provider RN) who supervise
teams of well-trained Key Support Workers.
• CREST provides clients with up to 4 visits a day, 7 days a week
Why CREST?
• Hospital is not the best location to rehabilitate and
care for older people
• 25-50% older people lose some function in hospital,
and 66% have not regained function 3 months later
• CREST improves client function and independence and
increases the time the client spends at home
• Designed to reduce:
– length of stay in hospital
– residential care placement
– need for long-term home care
Eligibility Criteria
•
•
•
•
Age > 65 years
Medically stable – ready for discharge from hospital
At risk of readmission, or entering ARC
Potential for partial or complete recovery with suitable home
rehabilitation within six weeks.
• The client is able to stand and transfer with one person (with or
without the help of a resident carer).
• The client consents to being treated at home by the team and aware of
the objectives set by the IDT
• The client has had a recent acute illness or injury or is at a borderline
level of function with an associated reduction in ADL and/or EADL
Making disability worse
worse
• Physical inactivity and disuse aggravate
medical conditions such as diabetes, heart
disease and causes deconditioning
• Hospitalisation induces inactivity and
dependence, “ wrapping older people in
cotton wool”. Risk of adverse events 10 x
higher > 65y
• Preclinical disability can be recognised and
averted with health promoting interventions,
e.g. activity, nutrition
•
Ageing, Health Risks and Cumulative Disability NEJM 1998.338:103541
Transition to home to home
• Discontinuity in clinical responsibility
• Uncertainty about changes to medication, what
medications already at home, whether prescription
will be filled etc
• Uncertainty about physical environment, resilience of
family, perceived risk
• Little consideration of what is important for the person

at home, but would benefit from increased support,
with rehabilitation focus to enhance recovery.

care etc to CREST

internal referrals from Older Persons Health
