There are two types of Guardianships, one for the Person (personal and health care), and one for the Estate (financial).
A person can have a Limited Guardianship of either the Person or the Estate, or a Full Guardianship of the Person and Estate, depending upon how much assistance and protection an indivdual may need through a guardianship.
Deprivation of rights is not favored in law.
Removal of only those rights which are necessary to protect an individual should occur.
For adults, the need for a guardianship may arise when an individual is no longer able to manage their personal and financial matters and who do not have alternatives to guardianship in place, such as a Durable Power of Attorney or Trust.
