Debunking Guardianship & Conservatorship

Guardianship and conservatorship serve distinct purposes:

  • Guardianship: Involves appointing a legal guardian to make personal and health-related decisions for an incapacitated individual. This could include decisions about medical care, residence, and daily living activities.
  • Conservatorship: Relates to managing an individual's financial affairs when they cannot do so themselves. A conservator ensures bills are paid, assets are managed, and financial matters are handled appropriately.


These legal roles are established to protect the well-being and interests of vulnerable individuals and ensure their needs are met.
