Once appointed, a guardian or conservator must be discharged by the judge to end the guardianship or conservatorship. Reasons for discharge include the death of the ward or conservatee, the wards return to capacity or the guardian/conservators inability to fulfill his or her duties.
Conservatorships are generally put in place for people who are docHubly disabled by mental illness, elderly individuals who lack mental capacity due to medical conditions such as dementia, or individuals with developmental disabilities who lack the capacity to manage their own affairs.
In many cases, a power of attorney allows the agent to successfully manage financial and medical decisions if the elder becomes incapacitated, but allows the elder to define what authority the agent will have. At times, guardianship is a better solution for assisting a loved one with all aspects of his or her life.
