Who can help with medical care?

Guardianship employs nurse consultants who assist guardians with healthcare, medical treatment, and end-of-life procedures for individuals under guardianship. 

Services are carried out as authorized by the district court and in accordance with regulations and healthcare standards.

Nurse consultants will work closely with physicians, nurses, and social workers, at medical or residential facilities across the state, as needed. 

They are also instrumental in reviewing and working with CHFS Office of Legal Services, in obtaining approval for certain medical procedures and treatments.
