Polish term or phrase: chory [jako obiekt/podmiot opieki]
Context: a long booklet size guide for carers (mostly home/community carers, mostly family members but occasionally the notes seem to be at a level of semi-professional).

The Polish text uses ''chory'' throughout.

Is there an option that's better than the very unwieldy ''person/people with xxx'' that any of you can think of?

Caregivers experience mixed emotions. Love for your family member and the satisfaction you derive from helping may coexist with feelings of resentment about the loss of your privacy and frustration at believing you have no control over what happens - http://www.seniormag.com/caregiverresources/handbook/ch5.htm
