Personal Family Caregiver Survey
The first step in the caregiver screening and assessment process is filling out a TCARE® Personal Family Caregiver Survey. The survey asks you to reflect on your experiences and is used to help you and the Family Caregiver Support Program better understand your situation to help locate the resources and support that meet your unique needs.  The survey takes about ten minutes to complete.

Please note: the grants that support this program ask that limited data be shared confidentially with our funders (Snohomish County Long-term Care & Aging and the City of Seattle).

This program through our Chapter is only available for unpaid family caregivers living in King & Snohomish counties who care for a person living in an independent setting. If you live outside of these counties or if your care receiver lives in long-term care, please contact our 24/7 Helpline for support and guidance: 800-272-3900
