What are the general guardian responsibilities of an adult ward?
The duties of limited guardianship may be different than general guardianship
Unless there is a commitment order, a guardian is responsible for the ward's:
- care
- comfort
- maintenance
- training
- education
If the ward needs mental health treatment or commitment, you must address it in the petition.
