Recording: Healthcare Pipeline to Guardianship

Healthcare Pipeline to Guardianship

This session will examine guardianships that originate from healthcare settings. Panelists will highlight findings and lessons learned from a study of the “healthcare-to-guardianship pipeline” in Maryland and outline approaches for diverting people away from guardianship to less restrictive options.

Participants will:

• learn how hospitals and other healthcare facilities use guardianship to address the needs of patients experiencing diminished capacity.
• gain an understanding of diverse approaches to meeting the needs of these patients, including interventions for less restrictive alternatives to guardianship.
• identify ways to incorporate person-centered approaches into their practices.
