Preferred term

care giving  

Definition(s)

  • Care giving is predominately used to describe the caretaking of someone who is chronically ill or disabled and is no longer able to care for him- or herself. Since this definition assumes that an individual was able at some point take care of him- or herself, it does not represent care of infants and young children. [Source: Encyclopedia of Motherhood; Care Giving]
