Official form for the appointment of an Adult Guardian in
any Australian state.
About this document
An Adult Guardian is a statutory officer who can act as an adult's decision maker in personal, health care, lifestyle, and some legal matters, give consent to health care issues and investigate allegations of neglect, abuse or exploitation against an adult.
An Adult Guardian is appointed whenever the adult in question is unable to care for themselves (usually because they are an infant, or have suffered a debilitating injury or have a serious medical condition) where there is no other suitable person, such as a family member, who is able to do so.
The Adult Guardian must be appointed using this official form in order to be recognized at law.
