If this term can be applied to those, for example, who work or looking to work in a home care situation, then we can talk. I am in the process of consulting with a lawyer to figure this whole thing out.
For any of those of you out there who are interested in helping those in need of this wonderful medicine, please contact me (patelhe7@msu.edu)
I am starting a Home Care Company which would basically provide direct care (medical and non-medical) to patients in need; if the primary caregiver title works out under this category,
the caregivers would be allowed to cultivate up to 12 plants per/patient. My angle here is less on profit, and more on helping those in need so they wouldn't have to go through shady dealers, including the corrupt medical system/pharmacies that would cause insurance trouble for someone who really doesn't need to deal with that kind of stress.
I understand most people in these forums aren't experienced care givers or medical professionals, (I already have a team of them ready), What I am looking for is a Business Partner or employee interested in marketing, etc.

From what I understand, no you do not have to be family. You would just have to be registered as a care giver and can have up to five patients. So say you had a team of 10 people, then you could care for up to 50 patients.

I hope that helped some what.
