difference between healthcare proxy and guardian advocate
A health care proxy (also referred to as a durable power of attorney for health care) is a document that appoints someone to make medical decisions for you, if you are in a situation where you canât make them yourself. You must choose your proxy thoughtfully since he/she will be acting on your behalf.
A Guardian Advocate must file an Initial Report within 60 days of appointment setting out the mental health, medical, social and personal care service needs of the person with developmental disabilities and how those will be met. A Guardian Advocate of the Property may have additional duties.
