has gloss | eng: A caregiver, or carer, is someone who has the job of looking after people. Usually people that are unable to completely care for themselves. Examples are children, disabled people, or the elderly. When a caregiver is assigned to look after a baby or a child they are called a babysitter. |
has gloss | eng: Carer (UK, NZ, Australian usage) and caregiver (US, Canadian usage) are words normally used to refer to unpaid relatives or friends who support people with disabilities. The words may be prefixed with "family" "spousal", "child" to distinguish between different care situations. The general term dependent/dependant care is also used for the service provided. Terms such as "voluntary caregiver" and "informal carer" are also used occasionally, but these terms have been criticized by carers as misnomers because they are perceived as belittling the huge impact that caring may have on an individual's life, the lack of realistic alternatives, and the degree of perceived duty of care felt by many relatives. |
