The pressures behind caregiving.
GC-SDOH-30 is a 30-question framework for caregiver support and research. It covers six areas of daily life, from practical help to financial pressure.

30 questions · 6 domains
Administration

Alignment
PRAPARE / AHC-HRSN-compatible framing
Audience
Caregiver-serving orgs, researchers, pilot teams
Caregivers experience social determinants differently from patients because they are carrying someone else's care while their own wellbeing is under pressure.
GC-SDOH-30 is designed to surface that difference: social isolation driven by role load, exhaustion from care tasks, navigation friction, and the financial drag of long-term support.
The instrument is adaptive, so deeper questioning happens only where the screener suggests meaningful pressure.
