If you are helping to support a loved one who is 60 or older, and/or if you are a grandparent caring for a grandchild, please complete the TCARE Caregiver Assessment below.

Click here to access the TCARE Caregiver Assessment Form (English)

Every caregiver starts with a prescreen to identify their level of stress and caregiving burnout risk.  Based on the results, they may be connected with a Family Caregiver Support Program Social Worker who uses the TCARE system to create a tailored care plan to support their caregiving journey.  The program offers caregiver training, support groups, home adaptations and safety devices, caregiver resource library and computer center, information and assistance, public information and community education for eligible caregivers.  It also helps caregivers with in-home respite and out-of-home respite (day care) for caregivers at risk of caregiver burnout.
