Existing law generally provides for the establishment, review, and termination of conservatorships. Existing law specifies the persons who may be appointed as a conservator and sets forth their powers and duties, including filing a care plan for the care, custody, and control of a conservatee. Existing law requires a conservator, upon appointment, to determine the appropriate level of care for the conservatee and to make that determination in the care plan. Existing law requires a conservator to evaluate the conservatee's placement and level of care if there is a material change in circumstances affecting the conservatee's needs for placement and care.
This bill would exempt a limited conservator appointed for a developmentally disabled adult from the above-described requirements relating to determining the level of care if the limited conservator is a relative within the first degree of the conservatee.
