TCARE Caregiver Assessment & Planning

TCARE (Tailored Caregiver Assessment & Referral) is the evidence-based caregiver assessment and tailored planning process used by Washington State's Family Caregiver Support Program. The process starts with a Personal Caregiver Survey and is conducted by trained Family Caregiver Specialists / TCARE Assessors to identify each caregiver's unique stressors and recommend tailored supports. RCW 74.41 mandates the creation of an evidence-based caregiver assessment in Washington.
