Not long ago I had a similar question and ended up reading through some training materials that explained it in a more structured way. One section I found useful described a breakdown of caregiving roles in the context of primary vs secondary caregiver, and it clarified that the primary caregiver is usually the main person responsible for ongoing care. This role often includes coordinating daily routines, making sure tasks are completed, and staying consistently involved with the patient. The secondary caregiver, on the other hand, tends to support when needed and may step in for specific tasks or during certain times. It also mentioned that both roles still focus on helping with daily activities like hygiene, mobility, and general supervision. What helped me was seeing how the responsibilities are divided rather than assumed. After that, it became easier to understand how different caregivers fit into the same care plan.
