Existing law, the Guardianship-Conservatorship Law, generally establishes the standards and procedures for the appointment and termination of an appointment for a guardian or conservator of a person, an estate, or both. Existing law authorizes a conservator to authorize the placement of a conservatee in a secured perimeter residential care facility for the elderly upon a court making specific findings.
This bill would also authorize a conservator to authorize the placement of a conservatee in a residential facility, an intermediate care facility, or a nursing facility, as defined, that has a secured perimeter, a delayed egress, or both a secured perimeter and a delayed egress. The bill would require court approval for a subsequent placement that seeks to move a conservatee to a different type of facility except if the change occurs as a result of an emergency.
