Final Answer : D, Explanation :  The term caregiver specifically refers to a person who provides assistance and support to someone who is elderly, sick, or disabled. While a nurse, nurse's aid, or home health assistant may also provide care to such individuals, the term caregiver is more inclusive and can refer to both paid and unpaid individuals. Therefore, option D is the best choice.
