Within a relationship, a reciprocal role is the role of one entity relative to another
entity. For example, husband and wife, or caregiver and patient. We provide commonly used
reciprocal role records. You can add reciprocal role records to specify more granular roles for
extended families, specific types of caregivers, or various professional affiliations.
