A home care assistant is someone who takes care of an adult (or child) who is dependent upon others for basic needs such as feeding and toileting care. The care recipient is not able to perform tasks that most of us take for granted. Many family members are informal unpaid home care assistants. Formal, paid home care assistants are also known as caregivers, home care providers, certified nurse assistants, home health aides, home helpers, home makers, companion care aides, etc.
