Can't we do better than phrases like "the person I/we/they care for", "the
cared-for", and "the person receiving the care" ? We can't keep
referring to "the/my/your loved one" and similar phrases.

Within a long list of terms, the "carer" is defined. No mention of the
person being cared for in the list here. Yet more here where
"person" and "people" are emphasised but no mention of what we are

Other aspects of this discussion might include the types of caree in the
context of hospice provision. Those who use the service may have
special provision for the carer. The hospice staff correctly deal with
"patients". This website uses the term "caree" until the
right term is presented.
