Guardianship office

Healthcare proxy, care directive and legal guardianship - We are here for you

One of the main tasks of the guardianship office is to support the guardianship court during the guardianship procedure. For this purpose, a social report is drawn up and a legal guardian is proposed.
The areas in which support is required for the person concerned are examined. In addition, affected persons, relatives and voluntary carers are offered advice on the subject of care and precautionary options.
