Client, definitely client. I work in home health care and we always call the people we care for "clients". "Patient" is reserved for people in a hospital, sometimes nursing homes. Assisted living and nursing home folks get "resident". Being in a field where the terminology is set that way I feel strongly that "client" much better suits a 1 on 1 relationship with someone you're caring for.
