Caregivers support elderly, disabled, or chronically ill individuals with daily living needs, typically working in private homes or assisted living facilities to help clients maintain independence and quality of life. Typical responsibilities include hands-on patient care, medication reminders, meal preparation, and mobility assistance for those with limited physical function. Just as important is companionship care, since caregivers often become a trusted, consistent presence in a client's daily routine.
