Understanding Guardianship: A Legal Overview

Guardianship is a legal relationship that gives a person the legal authority to make important decisions for another person. This relationship is created by the court and is intended to protect the person who has been named the guardian. The person who has been named the guardian is called the guardian.

Some of the responsibilities of the guardian include:

• Making decisions about where the person will live
• Making decisions about the person's medical care
• Making decisions about the person's finances
• Providing for the person's daily needs
• Ensuring that the person's rights are protected

A guardian can be appointed for a person who is unable to make important decisions for themselves because of a mental disability, a physical disability, or because the person is a minor. Guardianship is intended to be a temporary legal relationship. The guardian's authority ends when the person no longer needs the guardian's help.

• Conservatorship: The person who is named the conservator is called the conservator.
