“ Guardianship and Home Stability: Exploring the Range of Living Options ” continued
Importance of Home Stability
Collaborative Decision - Making: Guardianship is a collaborative process that involves the ward, their family, healthcare profes- sionals, and other relevant stakeholders. When considering living arrangements, the guardian engages in open communication and actively involves the ward in the decision - making pro- cess. This ensures that the ward's preferences, desires, and concerns are heard and considered, allowing them to maintain a sense of control and autonomy. Continued Support and Monitoring: Once a living arrangement is established, guardians remain committed to providing ongoing support and monitoring. They regularly assess the ward's well - being, address any concerns, and ensure that their evolving needs are met. This proactive approach helps maintain stability, adjust as necessary, and adapt to the changing circumstances of the ward. Contrary to popular misconceptions, guardianship does not automatically entail relocating in- dividuals from their homes. The primary objective of guardianship is to prioritize the well - being and stability of the ward, considering their safety, preferences, and care needs. By ex- ploring the range of living options and emphasizing the importance of home stability, guardi- ans play a pivotal role in supporting individuals under their care while maintaining their sense of familiarity, comfort, and connection.
