A caregiver is someone who provides regular support for another person's daily care needs. For employees, this may mean caring for a child, aging parent, spouse, family member with special needs, or another dependent. Caregiving can include arranging appointments, transportation, meals, supervision, companionship, backup care, or emergency coverage when usual care plans fall through.
