What kind of rights can be managed by a guardian?

In the state of Florida, a guardian can manage various rights on behalf of an incapacitated person, depending on the specific circumstances and the court’s order. These rights may include making decisions related to the ward’s medical treatment, housing, and daily care. Financial rights management can involve handling the ward’s assets, paying bills, and managing financial affairs. A guardian may also be responsible for decisions related to education, social interactions, and overall well-being. The extent of the guardian’s authority is determined by the court based on the specific needs and capacity of the individual under guardianship. Florida law emphasizes that guardians should act in the best interests of the ward, and the court maintains oversight to ensure the guardian fulfills their duties ethically and responsibly.
