Be A Part of Consumer Advocacy History:
  Contribute to 2012 Report on Quality Home Care

Hearing   directly from people who receive long-term care is the most important part of   our work (and possibly yours too!).  
 
  In 1985, NCCNHR released the seminal report, "A Consumer Perspective on   Quality Care: The Residents' Point of View," which spurred many   important policy initiatives and serves as an important reference for what   consumers want and need from their long-term care experience.  We are   proud to announce that later this year, in conjunction with the National   Association of States United for Aging and Disabilities (NASUAD) HCBS   Conference, we'll release a new report, assessing what home care consumers   want, need and how they define quality care.  

But we cannot complete this   project without YOUR help.  Be a part of Consumer Voice (and advocacy)   history and contribute to the report.  
 
  And...if you submit a consumer name or conduct an interview, we'll enter your   name into a drawing to receive a free registration for our September 10th   Advocacy in Action Training in DC!

  If you are a home care consumer (accessing services from a paid caregiver),   know of any home care consumers willing to be interviewed and/or are willing   to interview consumers yourself, please email us as soon as possible at info@theconsumervoice.org.

Interviews   will be conducted by volunteers via telephone or by online survey (for those   with internet access) and will take no more than 30-minutes. More   information about sharing consumer experiences or becoming a volunteer to   conduct consumer interviews is available on our website.

Thank you!
