Voice Your Opinion
Earn Cash Incentives
Test New Products

It is an honor to be associated with “TCAP,” The Caregivers Advisory Panel. When I  first learned about “TCAP,” I thought to myself. “Yes, this is excellent. Why hasn’t this been done before?” It was then I realized the importance of having the Caregiver’s voice heard. The role of the caregiver and their needs can assist manufacturers of products, legislation and much more.

The program is an excellent opportunity to share your opinions, frustrations and needs. It offers you an opportunity to learn about and test new products pertinent to home health. And it affords you an opportunity to earn cash and eligibility for special awards. While the research provides opportunities to change so many aspects for caregivers TCAP has a privacy agreement to protect you.The membership is free and you may sign up from her and at the TCAP site.

The Mission Of TCAP:

To confidentially collect, quantify and interpret facts, opinions and needs of family caregivers in a way that enables health care manufacturers, service providers and policy makers to gain insight for their decision making that will drive the innovation of improved products, services, programs and support for America’s 25 million caregiving families.

I encourage you to let your voice be heard. To learn more, click on the following links:
