Hello. I am trying to see if anyone in Michigan or anywhere can tell me how to get the ball rolling in getting emergency guardianship of my mom who is currently in the hospital. Her Dr. already gave me the letter to use to get started, but I don't know how to exactly get it done especially now with covid and the courts being shut down.
As said, the Social Worker should be able to help.
Have you read your paperwork? It is good the Doctor is involved. Call back and ask for further instruction; tell them it is more than you can negotiate.
See an Elder Law Attorney with your paperwork.
Generally the emergency guardianship is a temporary guardianship that needs further followup.
