  • Hospital Membership: Designed for institutional participation, this membership allows hospitals to engage fully with GTC’s quality improvement infrastructure, including access to the secure, HIPAA-compliant database for tracking and benchmarking patient outcomes, participation in webinars, evidence-based intervention tools, and a discussion forum with global clinicians. It supports comprehensive involvement in collaborative efforts to improve tracheostomy care delivery.

  • Healthcare Professional Membership: Available free to individual clinicians and care providers, this option grants access to educational resources such as discussion forums with expert clinicians, introductory information about the GTC database, and “bite-sized” tracheostomy care materials to support professional development and knowledge sharing.

  • People with a Tracheostomy, their Families & Caregivers (PFC) Membership: Aimed at individuals with tracheostomies, their families, and caregivers, this membership provides opportunities to connect with others for support, share personal stories and experiences, and access patient-centered resources while contributing to the broader community focused on improving tracheostomy care.
